The butler is told to bring in the first person he finds, and drags in Charlie, who is out looking for eats. But just as Charlie starts to fill in on the rich food, the missing guest arrives and he is thrown out. This is repeated several times by having Charlie dragged in and thrown out again as various guests suddenly depart and return again. Finally an unexpected guest arrives in the person of Charlie's wife, and then the fun begins. Written by
