They meet Edith, with the fruits of a recent divorce, and engage her as stenographer. They do a rushing business, until a colored couple nearly upsets the office. Mr. and Mrs. Lemon go separately to consult them. Mr. Lemon engages Eddie to go to their home and flirt with his wife, while Mrs. Lemon engages Lee to send their most seductive vampire to "vamp" Mr. Lemon. Edith refuses the job, so Lee has to play it himself. They arrive at the Lemon home, and all goes well until the boys arrange for elopements with the pair. Lee takes off his wig and settles down to a cigarette. The two Lemons meet each other at the appointed place instead of the boys, and, returning, are about to put the boys out, but they demand their money and get it for performing their side of the bargain.
