The Grandfather is desperate to keep the Tailor shop in the family, however his son is not keen and works for a corporate tailor's. The son is also married to the late Chairman's daughter. Once the Chairman dies, a host of power struggles between his wife and her brother and Stepmother ensue. Meanwhile, the Grandfather of the Tailor's shop decides to go on a sabbatical making made to measure suits for the poor and abandoning the Tailor's shop to his wife, daughter and 2 loyal employees. He leaves a letter asking them to sell the shop as he doesn't have the heart to. Eventually, the shop is placed in the hands of a former employee who agrees to run it until the Grandfather returns.
