The letter also reminds Jimmy that he must keep away from marital entanglements for the present if he wishes to remain in his uncle's will, as Uncle has already picked out his future bride. Mary, on learning of the contents of the note, goes into hysterics, and while Jimmy is frantically trying to soothe her, the bell rings. It is Uncle. Both are galvanized into action, and after hastily arranging matters, the young man admits his uncle. Jimmy acts extremely nervous and several times the pair are nearly caught unawares, but when the attractive "maid" smiles at Uncle, he forgets all else and flirts with her. Uncle sends Jimmy out on various errands, then secures a huge bouquet, which he presents to Mary, saying, "For you, Dearie." She is pleased until he tries to put an arm around her waist, then she changes instantly into a veritable little fury, gives him a tongue-lashing and winds up by smashing the bouquet over his head. She goes into hysterics again, just as Jimmie returns from his last errand. Uncle is in a fearful rage. Suddenly he discovers various pieces of women's apparel and demands an explanation. Jimmy is speechless, but Mary springs up, marches up to Uncle, pointing to her wedding ring. Uncle bursts out again, but Mary talks soothingly and leads him to a settee, where she and Jimmy wait on him hand and foot. Mary lights a cigar for him and Uncle finally capitulates.
