Story :-

Jack and Jill were a young married couple who had a small baby. Once upon a time Aunt Jane visited to them. Jane was surprised to find all the comforts, such as a radio, a car and a refrigerator. Jack's salary was not high. Even though they lived in a beautiful home with all those comforts. So Aunt Jane shocked.

She began to wonder whether, as a wedding gift she had given them 2000 pounds instead of the 200 pounds which she wanted to give them. Otherwise how did Jack and Jill buy all these things ? She suggested that the rent for such a house must be very high. Jack replied that they owned the house. Then Aunt Jane understood that though Jack and Jill had everything, nothing belongs to them.

They bought everything they had on instalment basis. Only a steering wheel of a car, a wheel and two cylinders had been paid for. And only one leg of the sofa that Aunt Jane sat on, belonged to them. The total amount to be paid towards instalments per week came more than 7 pounds. Jack was earning only 6 pounds a week. Jill was a housewife.

When Aunt Jane asked how he could pay 7 pounds a week, when he was earning only 6 pounds, Jack said that they could take a loan. Aunt Jane was shocked at the way Jack and Jill ran their family.

Before she left, she gave 10 pounds to Jill and told them to make at least one article completely theirs, using that money. While Jack went with Aunt Jane to the bus stop, Jill sent the money to Dr. Martin. Jack came back and said that he wanted to pay 2 months instalments on the car using that money.

Jill replied that by paying the money to Dr. Martin, their baby would become completely theirs ! The end of the play is ironical, though it is an exaggeration. The play is really a satire on the materialistic bent of the modern man.
