The affair started well, but the maid he had promised to marry recognized him making love to the heiress and told her brother, who had a nasty temper and carried weapons. Billie had to take back the maid, but only temporarily, as he got away and attended a reception in his honor at the heiress's home. The vendetta, however, mistook him for the real baron they wished to assassinate and threw bombs at him. These had a disturbing effect on the dinner party and everybody tries to get away gracefully, but with haste. Billie ran into a shed, but a bomb followed and exploded in his rear. Billie immediately went up. His descent was much more rapid than his rise, and several unpleasant obstacles were met with on the way down. Another man got the maid and the baron got Billie.
