Prominent surgeon Charles Grayson retires from his practice, intending to donate his money to charitable religious causes. His family launches a suit against him, hoping to have him declared legally incompetent and unable to manage his money.

Thanks to the testimony of many of his grateful patients, Brennan is declared sane and is permitted by court decree to spend his money as he sees fit.
