On his way downtown, Neal sees a pretty girl and starts a flirtation. The girl happens to be Ethel, who has never met Neal. Billie tells Ethel that Neal is a gay dog, showing Ethel his picture. "Yes," says Ethel, "he tried to flirt with me." So the two girls plan to teach the wayward one a lesson. Ethel continues the flirtation without letting Neal know she is his wife's friend. Ethel goes to dinner with Neal, while Billie gets herself up as a "bad man," with a big mustache and a six-shooter. Going to the café, she appears suddenly in the private booth. Ethel gasps, "My husband!" as Billie fires and chases Neal out. The girls hurry home and Billie, properly dressed, receives Neal when he comes in breathless. When she goes out, Ethel comes in and blackmails Neal. He gives her $100 to get her out before Billie comes in. Ethel goes out in the hall and there she and Billie divide the money and have a big laugh. Neal hears them, comes out, and sees the joke is on him. "But who was the little gun-fighter?" he asks. "That was your wife," says Ethel. This flabbergasts Neal completely. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
