The play opens with three characters coming out to address the audience. Matilde comes out first, telling an elaborate joke in Portuguese without translation. Next Lane, a doctor in her 50s, comes out to explain that Matilde, her Brazilian maid, is depressed and has been failing to clean her house and so she had her medicated. She is followed by Virginia, Lane's older sister, a housewife, who argues that people who do not clean their own homes are insane. Matilde finally comes back on stage to tell the audience, this time in English, about how her parents, both wonderful comedians, recently died. Not knowing what to do with herself after, Matilde came to America to clean this house.
