Wow. "Jeeves and the Rough Stuff" That sounds like a winner!
It was the affair of old Sippy or something like that... Bertie bought this Asian vase and Jeeves hated it... he hits Sippy on the back of the head with a golf club, knocking him unconscious, then he breaks the vase (or at least this is what he tells Bertie) and at the end of the story and Bertie feels the scales fall from his eyes because he never envisions Jeeves actually doing things like that.
Truthfully, I never really thought about the Agatha perspective until I read the story where she tries to make Bertie into the secretary for this Filmer bird... She is genuinely trying to make something of him...one can almost see her previously molding Uncle Willoughby from a bounder into a boring old man sitting in his study writing his recollections.
