Grandi manovre

La storia

Siamo alla vigilia della prima guerra mondiale. Armando, giovane e brillante tenente dei dragoni e affermato dongiovanni, scommette con un gruppo di amici di sedurre una donna designata dal caso. Posta della scommessa: un banchetto. Gli capita in sorte una affascinante divorziata, Maria Luisa, e Armando sembra per la prima volta sinceramente innamorato. Anche la donna incomincia a credergli e a cedergli, ma, quando l'esercito obbligherà il dragone ad un'assenza di poche settimane, le malelingue provvederanno ad informare Maria Luisa della sciagurata e ormai dimenticata scommessa. Al ritorno di Armando, lo congederà, delusa.
