His Lordship's proposal is forced upon her and preparations are made for the wedding. Billie appeals to her girl friend, Constance, and they together with Jack frame up a plan. Billie invites His Lordship to meet them and he accepts, being in love with Billie. At the little party, the friends so work it that His Lordship and Constance are much taken with each other, and Constance plays her part ardently. He is in a quandary as to which girl he loves the best, but finally decides it is Billie. The day of the wedding arrives and the guests are assembled. Billie is dressing in her room when by a previous appointment Jack drives up in his car and she escapes with him. Father sees the escape of Billie and Jack in the car and he, His Lordship and Constance rush out in pursuit. A lively chase follows. Jack is forced to stop his car at a point where the road is being repaired and father's car catches up. Constance and His Lordship have meanwhile been making ardent love in father's car and by the time they reach the point where Jack is forced to stop His Lordship has lost his heart and head tor Constance. He announces his decision to Billie's father, who is much put out by the change in things. Rather than disappoint the guests he gives his consent to her marrying Jack. Accordingly they return home, and it is arranged that Jack and Billie are married first. His Lordship takes his place in turn, with Constance, but at the last moment she announces she has changed her mind and is going to become a Red Cross nurse, which causes His Lordship to faint dead away.
