Neal has two sisters at home: Billie, to whom all the world pays homage; and Jane, who is on the verge of becoming an old maid. The boys arrive and have a great time. Jack isn't interested in Jane, but when they arrive at the house and he sees Billie--who is forced by her mother to play the part of the maid so Jane might get more attention, he is lost. There is a big reception given in honor of the guest that night and Jack has virtually to be carried away from his new-found affinity. Billie decides that she will not miss all the fun, so she dresses in her best and slips to the reception. Jack has become tired of the bunch, and his thoughts stray to the maid, when he Bees a swell dressed girl, an exact resemblance of the maid. He rushes to her, but Billie plays the game and pretends she never saw him before. Jack tells Neal the maid is there, but the latter denies it and Jack says they must go home to see if the maid is really there. Billie gets "wise" and beats them home, and when they knock on her door she opens. Jack is in a quandary. Next morning Jack is up early and loiters around the maid until mother comes. He then beats a hasty retreat. Neal goes out to play golf, and Billie tired of her role, accompanies him. When Jane comes down dressed to capture the prize she finds he has gone and she is in despair. Jack wanders to the links, and seeing Neal and the maid talking, thinks his dream of love is over, but he comes up unnoticed and hears her tell Neal how she beat them home from the reception. Jack then confronts Billie and the "maid" is forced into a confession. Jack proposes, Billie accepts him and Mama is forced to give her consent. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
