Gayboy, however, has plans of his own concerning Mildred's marriage, and forbids Bangs' attentions, much to both the lovers' discomfiture. A reception is given by the rich Mrs. Porter, a widow, and Gayboy receives an invitation for himself and Mildred. At the Porter residence that evening old Gayboy finds that Bangs is one of the guests and makes himself thoroughly disagreeable in breaking up the lovers' tete-a-tete, until he meets the widow and immediately falls deeply in love with her. Bangs and Mildred immediately see how the wind blows, and manage to also break up several sentimental talks of old Gayboy and the widow during the course of the evening. Still stern father forbids their marriage and it is not until several days later that he is brought to terms in a most ludicrous manner. Happening to stroll down to the station platform one morning taking pictures, Mildred and Bangs discover father asleep on one of the benches, while seated beside him is a large negress, who condescends to pose with her arm about Gayboy's neck while Bangs takes a photo. Consequently Gayboy is amazed a few evenings later, while he is calling on the widow, to see the photo in Bangs' hands. He begs and pleads for mercy, but Bangs threatens to hand it over to the widow unless he agrees to his marriage with Mildred. For a moment the old fellow storms, threatens and finally wilts completely as he reluctantly gives the young people the desired permission to wed, and takes the unsuspicious widow to his heart.
