Betty promptly gets stage-struck and falls head over heels in love with the actor. Billy finally hits on a scheme whereby he can regain her love. He applies for a position as an actor in a road company and after a try-out, is engaged. Later, he induces the manager to give Betty a position in the same company and after some rehearsing, the company together with Billy and Betty takes to the road in search of fame and fortune. Billy's first night, however, is not encouraging. He is greeted with dozens of cabbages, carrots and none too fresh vegetable matter, so he and Betty come to the conclusion that home is the best place after all, and take the next train back. Betty is now cured of the stage, much to Billy's delight, and she joins him in swearing "Never Again." Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
