Here we find Zeb and Cynthia going into a photograph gallery to engage the services of the artist. They are an exceedingly eccentric pair, both lacking all the elements that would make them attractive. In fact, they are just exactly the opposite and the moment the bride looks into the mirror to fix her hair it cracks into a dozen pieces. Her husband's attention is attracted by her to the catastrophe. Both are surprised and when their attention is attracted to the camera it runs around the room and finally exits precipitously. The photographer returns after a short absence, and to his dismay sees the damage that has been wrought by the couple's ugliness. He tries to run them out, but the bridegroom, being well supplied with money, readily offers to pay for the damage and all is well. The camera is again brought in, but refuses to stay, out it runs. The photographer brings it in again and nails it to the floor. This proves too much for the camera and it explodes. The enraged photographer insists on their leaving. His assistant then announces another customer to the dismayed photographer. In comes a very attractive young woman whose beauty is such that when she looks into the mirror it is immediately made whole, the camera becomes whole again, and the photographer is happy once more.
