Jupiter is bored with life on Mount Olympus and decides to have an affair with a mortal woman, which turns out to be the beneficent Princess Alcmene.

Sosia, one of the General's slaves, arrives back home, happy to be alive after the years he spent fighting in the wars.

Mercury advises his father to give the Princess time, and eventually she will be cognizant of the truth ("Wait 'Til it Dawns").

En route home, he encounters Sosia, who tells him he was barred from the house by, none other than the imposter General ("It Was Me").

He is astounded to learn she spent an enchanted, passionate reunion the night before, which she describes in glowing detail ("Wonderful").

To take her, he plans to make her into a constellation, so that way he can be with her forever in heaven, despite the objections by Mercury.

Dolores uses this plot point as an excuse for a large production number with her as the featured performer ("A Star is Born").

He takes back his plea and declares he will defend her purity of heart till death.

Jupiter then leaves Alcmene, abjures from the challenge to mend harmony on Earth.

Included in the actual contract to produce the show are stipulations that credit be given to Murray the Furrier in all advertising media and program books.

The chorus (Tom, Dick, Horace and Delores) are stylized characters who tap dance in sandals.
