One night, Mackay becomes intoxicated; the next morning he is dazed and stupid, Haney sends for him and Grieg slips a package of the bank's money into the cashier's coat. An hour later, the shortage is "discovered," Harry arrested, and the money found in his possession. To everyone's surprise, Haney forgives Harry and dismisses the charge. Grieg and Haney then plan a big haul. They invite Harry to dinner that evening, get him intoxicated, and force him to take the remaining funds in the bank's vaults and place them in a large packing case in an adjoining yard. The president's stenographer Ethel, who is Harry's sweetheart, somehow learns what is going on and succeeds in transferring the money to a refuse can nearby, unnoticed, then gets into the case and closes the lid. The case is carted away to Haney's home. Harry, sobered up, realizes all that has transpired. Going to Haney's house, he denounces him, but is overpowered, bound and gagged by Haney and Grieg. Ethel gets out of the case in time to call the police before she is discovered. The police nab the rascals and hustle them off to jail, and "the girl in the case" later becomes Harry's wife.
