Mother and father decide that they can never be reconciled while each champions a candidate for their daughter's hand. The only thing they agree upon is in objecting most positively to Jack. Why they feel this way toward Sue's choice is unknown, unless it is that they have determined to outdo each other in promoting the chances of their favorite. To settle the matter peacefully, Sue promises to each secretly; that is, to her father and mother, to elope with their choice. Mother now believes that she has won out and father thinks the same. Sue telephones to Jack to meet her at Perry Junction to elope with her. She writes to Percy and Patterson to meet her at the Old Oak. Percy dresses in girl's clothes so that no one will know him. Percy and Patterson meet at the Old Oak, and a desperate fight ensues between them, thinking that each has been playing a joke on the other. While this is going on, Sue and Jack are on their way to the minister. When the two outwitted lovers discover how they have been duped, they hasten to Sue's house and tell of it to father and mother, who, in company with the young rivals, hasten after Sue. They arrive just in time to witness the final part of the wedding ceremony. At first Sue's father and mother are angry, but soon get over this, realizing that their daughter is happy in her own selection. Percy and Patterson storm in protest, but make a meek exit, as they are laughed to scorn by the happy couple and the bride's parents, who thoroughly appreciate the joke on themselves and the defeated rivals.
