They meet upon a streetcar and a way to their further acquaintance is opened when Betty finds she has forgotten her pocketbook. Ray pays her car fare. When they leave the car Betty learns that in her excitement she has forgotten to ask for a transfer and Ray proffers another nickel. Next day Betty is seen with Ray by some of her girl friends. Upon joining them Betty tells them that Ray is the son of a millionaire. Ray tells a friend whom he meets that Betty has a wealthy aunt and he is congratulated. Next day while Ray and Betty are out walking, one of Ray's customers passes. Betty gives him a nod of recognition and informs Ray that the prosperous looking individual who just passed him is her father. Ray feels that he is indeed in luck. They pass one of Betty's customers a little later and Ray tips his hat and bows, informing Betty that it is wealthy aunt. Next day at the fountain Betty's "father" comes in as usual and orders a drink. Ray, overcome, informs him that he is acquainted with the customer's daughter. The man informs Ray that he has no daughter, and leaves the place. Ray loses his job. His friend obtains him a job at another fountain. At the store Betty waits upon Ray's "aunt," blushingly informing her that she is acquainted with her customer's nephew. Highly indignant, the customer informs her that she has no nephew. Later in the day the girls inform Betty there is a new clerk at the soda fountain where they are in the habit of attending, inviting her to come with them and see him. Betty goes and comes face to face with Ray. Each thinking the other a base deceiver they exchange the cold and stony stare. After working hours they meet outside the store. They make up, and Ray becomes her steady carfare. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
