The Mating Game

Lorenzo Charlton, is a stuffy tax investigator sent to the farm of Pop Larkin and Ma Larkin to find out why they haven't been paying taxes. He discovers that the Larkins, instead of money, use a homegrown barter system. Overwhelmed by their complex economic network, Lorenzo drinks one home brew too many. Awakening from a hangover, he sees a vision of loveliness before him -- the Larkin's spunky daughter Mariette. Enraptured by Mariette, he decides to stick around and find a way to get the family out of their onerous tax burden.
