Father is willing enough to have her off his hands, but Mary insists that they elope, so father helps Harry get a ladder. That night they start out, but the auto breaks down and Mary, fearful that they are pursued, will not wait for Harry to fix it, but starts off on foot. She grows tired and they take a dray, changing to a boat when they pass the water. But the boat overturns and Harry catches a donkey for her. She doesn't like riding without a saddle, so she tries the road again and arrives at the minister's in a wheelbarrow. There they hire a rig to take them back to the auto and the journey is completed in the car. Mary kneels for forgiveness and father, not only forgives, but hands Harry a bunch of money, which Mary takes away from him, letting him have half a dollar.
