A short restoration comedic drama set in England's 17th Century. Loosely adapted from from Sir George Etherege's restoration comedy "Man of Mode" , "An Intrigue" revolves around the grandeur lives and sexual innuendos of the upper classes of England. Our Protagonist, and well known womanizer, Dorimant is in pursuit of the fair Lady Emilia. Through his scheming, Dorimant learns that "a certain Sir Fopling Flutter has recently arrived from Paris", the en vogue city of the arts and high fashion, and has "certain designs on the fair Emilia." Determined to be deemed the more favorable in the lady Emilia's eyes, Dorimant hatches a devilish plan to outwit the extravagant fop.
