His father, who lives in a distant city, has never seen her. He visits his son who is about to take him to see Amy, but business intervenes and he tells Jack to go and attend to the shop, and that he will find his way to Amy's alone. He catches her washing her hair in anticipation of his visit and when he hustles back to the office, he and Jack quarrel about her looks. Jack hustles off to see what was the matter and the old man starts for home. Jack arranges to bring his father to lunch at Amy's, and father decides to have one more try. The cook quits at the sudden notice of lunch and Amy puts on the apron. Father's second look at his daughter-in-law is worse than the first. Amy, desperate, collars him, drags him into the house and ties him to a chair. Then she telephones Jack and hustles up lunch. Father is just about to leave when she comes in, in her proper person and father decides that Jack was right after all. Written by
