Les Fourberies de Scapin — variously translated as The Schemes of Scapin, Scapin the Schemer, or The Impostures of Scapin — is a 1671 comedy by Molière.Two young men from well-to-do families marry two women of lesser means in secret while both of their fathers are out of town. The fathers return with marriage plans for the sons, not realizing they are already married. The title character, Scapin, wants to help the lovers stay married to their current wives; he does this through schemes, lies, and tricks.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })First performed on May 24, 1671, at the Palais Royal, where Molière acted the part of Scapin.

Arranged Marriage: The core plot: Géronte and Argante want to arrange marriages for their sons. The sons are not on board with this plan. The sons have new girlfriends and want to Marry for Love. The plot twist is that it's a Perfectly Arranged Marriage and Suddenly Suitable Suitor: the girlfriends (who they already fell in love with on their own) are coincidentally the brides their fathers picked for them.

As You Know: Octave to Scapin in the beginning. Made funny by Scapin's injections of "Yes, I know."
