She finds in her husband's uncle, Matthew 'Matt' Lindsay (Leon Errol), a friend and adventurous accomplice, as they both get into trouble from situations usually caused by their scheming and by the volatile temperament of Carmelita, as well as Matt being forced at some point to impersonate the eccentric Lord Epping (also Errol), almost always when he's elsewhere on the premises. The plot often took a back seat to gags, many of them supposedly ad-libbed by V\u00E9lez and Errol during filming."@en . . . . . . . . "Mexican Spitfire (film series)"@en . .
