Two old gentlemen who have been pals from boyhood decide that their children ought to marry. This intention is a commendable one, to be sure, and what is more, their son and daughter like each other pretty well, still more, the wish of the parents would have been automatically done if the old men only had sense enough to remember the adage about the cooks and the broth. Their continued interference so completely disgusts the couple that for no reason of ill feeling toward each other they come to the conclusion that they had better part. Their father are panic-stricken when they learn of this and are at their wits' end as to how to repair the damage they now realize they have done. But a friend of theirs arrives and he helps them out of the situation. He so arranges things that the son and daughter come on the scene one day while their parents are apparently having a furious fight. They learn that the two men now object to the marriage of their children, and since they really look as if they have been banging each other around, the children follow tradition. Experience has taught the world that a sure way to have young people do your wish is to object to it; they are always contrary. The ruse works. The dads go to the limit in their apparent objections, and the children finally elope and get married. The two wise men then go out for a celebration.
