This more than offsets the fact that Bill ranks higher as a suitor in the estimation of Arabella's father than does Archie. Wearied of being ousted from the D'Aubing estate, Archie then and there decides to put the quietus upon his rival. A brick is promoted to the job of Archie's first assistant and is sped on its mission by the arm belonging to Willie's rival. But, alas, the brick is badly aimed, and merely succeeds in rocking Arabella into a gentle slumber. A battle royal, in which the weapons are whitewash buckets and brushes, ensues. Archie retreats to the roof of the D'Aubing home, where he dumps a rain barrel over the attacking force which has been reinforced by the addition of Arabella's father. The fight ends when the latter and Archie tumble off the roof. The following day, Arabella is compelled to go canoeing with William. The canoe upsets, and while Will flounders in the water, Arabella is rescued by Archie and elopes with him. Poor William, believing his sweetheart has drowned, dives in vain for her. In this he is joined by D'Aubing. While the two are investigating Neptune's domains, Archie and his sweetheart are wed. The two return to the banks of the stream and confront the would-be life savers. In his anger at being fooled by William, D'Aubing seizes the latter, hurls him back into the stream to perish miserably and accompanies his son-in-law and his daughter home.
