In Madras, Amélie lives with her husband under the name Joanna, while he works as a carpenter under the name Charles. Charles grows jealous of the young officer Édouard and challenges him to a duel. The governor intervenes and discovers that Charles and Édouard are both his sons. Édouard is only lightly wounded, and the brothers embrace.
The hot-tempered Pandolphe plans to disinherit his nephew Lysandre and marry Isabelle to his former tutor, Balouard. With help from Scapin and Nérine, Isabelle feigns fickleness so Balouard rejects the match; after a drunken diversion and escape from confinement, Lysandre and Isabelle win Pandolphe’s blessing.
The opera's characters include two blind musicians, Nuguez and Don Brusco; Mendoce, who poses as Pedro and as their pupil; Flora, Nuguez's niece; and Jacinthe, the musicians' housekeeper.
