Synopsis
Elderly former adventurer Tommy Atkins describes how he once met Rudyard Kipling and, after telling the legendary writer about his exploits with women, saw his tales transformed into Kipling's poem "The Ladies." He then recalls the scenes that were immortalized in the poem: Tommy travels to India, where prostitutes try to tempt him, and one older woman teaches him the ways of love. He then comes across an Asian "Doll in a Teacup" in the woods, and clothes her in an English dress. In the jungle, a "Shiny She Devil" native woman loves him, but when she finds a picture of one of his former lovers, she stabs him and runs off with her wildcat. A sixteen-year-old girl catches his fancy, but after fantasizing about seeing her naked, he flees in fear. Finally, Tommy takes up with a "Colonel's Lady," who appears proper but underneath is as lusty as any other woman. Back in the present, Tommy pictures his comely nurse naked.
