Babe, the driver of one of the city's garbage carts, also has daydreams of the life he would like to lead. In the park one day Kate, adorned in her best, encounters Babe, also attired in his Sunday best. The two entertain each other with stories of the thrills and bores of the lives they pretend to lead, greatly to the delight of the other. When the Goldrox are away for a day, Kate seizes the golden opportunity to indulge in the joys of living the life of the social grand dame of her dreams. With the help of the family servants she invites Babe to the house, where she proceeds to entertain him. Babe is greatly impressed and the affair is progressing rapidly, but on the following morning, Babe, dressed in his overalls, drives up to the back of the house to empty the garbage cans. He meets Kate coming out of the kitchen with the scraps of the morning meal, and each learns of the deception of the other. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
