Bill proceeds to spend his entire allowance on the girl he has stolen from his brother. While in an ice cream parlor with Mildred. Bill finds a fly in his dish. His indignant complaint results in the dismissal of Ham, the waiter who had served him. Anxious to placate his patron, the proprietor of the place allows Bill to depart without paying. This gives Bill an idea. When he takes Mildred out to dine that evening, he has a fly or two tucked away in his vest pocket. It happens that Ham has landed a job in the restaurant and again is fired when Bill puts his trick over. Meanwhile, Bud, desperate at the thought of losing his sweetheart, plans Bill's downfall. The boy writes to six of his brother's former sweethearts, requesting them to be at Wrector's the following night at eight. Bill has arranged to take Mildred to that fashionable eating emporium. Ham has just secured a position in Wrector's when he sees Bill and Mildred enter. Thirsting for revenge, Ham notifies the manager of Bill's scheme. Shortly afterward, Bill is astounded when the six girls drop in and join him. His heart almost stops beating when the bill is finally presented. He tries the fly trick, but this time it fails to work. Mildred is furious. Bud has witnessed all that has transpired from an adjoining table. Mildred welcomes him effusively when he strolls over. Bud pays the bill, laughs at Bill and walks out in triumph with his sweetheart. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
