The play revolves around themes of love, fidelity, and the complications that arise from romantic entanglements, showcasing the experiences and interactions of various characters, particularly two young men, Mirabel and Duretete, as they navigate societal expectations and personal desires. The opening of "The Inconstant" introduces a lively scene set in the streets of Paris, establishing the return of Young Mirabel from his travels abroad and his reunion with Captain Duretete. Their lively banter hints at their flirtatious pursuits and introduces Old Mirabel, Young Mirabel's father, who is eager to rekindle familial ties.
