    Mitford jest jednym z tych miejsc, o których marzymy. To piękna wieś niczym z obrazka; wszyscy mieszkańcy mają czas, by przystanąć i porozmawiać. Właśnie tam oddany swej parafii pastor, ojciec Tim, zaczyna odczuwać potrzebę odmiany, a wtedy jego życie niespodziewanie nabiera rumieńców. Zabłąkany pies wielkości luksusowej limuzyny chodzi za nim krok w krok i wprowadza się do jego domu, nie mając zamiaru się wynieść. Ojciec Tim musi także (dodajmy, niezbyt ochoczo) sprawować nadzór nad młodocianym wyrzutkiem, wrogo nastawionym zwłaszcza wobec opiekuna, a nowa atrakcyjna sąsiadka nieustannie wydeptuje ścieżkę do drzwi duszpasterza, budząc uczucia, których nie było mu dane zaznać już od lat.
