Dorothy, a city friend of Florence's, arrives on a visit at the Livingston's. Seeing the two old fellows endeavoring to monopolize the fair widow's attentions. Dorothy asks what it all means. Dick and Florence tell her and she determines to help the young lovers. Florence, with a camera, hides in a doorway, and when Livingston comes by, Dorothy flirts outrageously with him with the result that they sit on a nearby bench very close together. Florence clicks the camera just as Livingston kisses Dorothy. Then they work the same scheme with Kirkland, Dorothy pretending a sprained ankle. Florence's camera snaps them with Kirkland 's arms around Dorothy's waist. Then Florence threatens to show the photos to the widow. Livingston and Kirkland are forced to withdraw their objections to the marriage of their respective daughter and son. When Kirkland and Livingston again call on the widow, they are handed a letter, explaining that she has gone away with an old sweetheart, adding that she hopes they will find their happiness in that of their children whom they have foolishly tried to keep apart. Agreeing that they have been a couple of old fools, the two men shake hands, and give their hearty endorsement to the marriage of Dick and Florence. Their "dads" lose and they win.
