The Plot of She Stoops to Conquer
The story revolves around a wreathing countryman Mr. Hardcastle, who arranges for his daughter Kate to meet Young Marlow, the son of a wealthy Londoner, Charles Marlow his old friend hoping the pair will marry.
Young Marlow sets out for the Hardcastle’s manor with a friend, George Hastings an admirer of Miss Constance Neville another young lady who lives with the Hardcastles. During the journey, the two men become lost and stopped at an alehouse, the three pigeons, for directions.
Tony Lumpkin, Kate’s half-brother and cousin to Constance, comes across the two strangers at the alehouse and realising their identity, plays a practical joke by telling them that they are a long way from their destination and will have to stay overnight at an inn. The ‘inn’ he directs them to, is in fact, the home of the Hardcastles.
