In 1867 at Baden-Baden, Alexei is the tutor of General Zagorianski's children. He finds out that his employer is wallowing in debt and just biding his time until he inherits from an aging aunt. Alexei loves Pauline, Zagorianski's step-daughter who has fallen for the Marquis DesGrieux. The elderly aunt loses all her money gambling.
