Giuseppe applies for the position at Rosen's Café. Rosen is impressed with Giuseppe's voice, and sends a letter to Mr. Bummerstein, a theatrical magnate, to come and hear him. Bummerstein arrives, and after trying out Giuseppe's voice, gives him a contract for five hundred dollars a week to appear in his opera. Giuseppe is introduced to Rosen's daughter, who is smitten with him. Being out of funds to buy his wardrobe, Giuseppe borrows some money from Rosen and signs a note for the loan at twenty per cent. The following week the Rosens take a box at the opera. Giuseppe's family also have a box. To the surprise and humiliation of everybody, Giuseppe is a complete failure. Mr. Rosen had told Giuseppe that after the first performance he would give his daughter Rosie and Giuseppe a banquet. Now that Giuseppe has been a failure, the Rosens decide to have the banquet alone. Giuseppe with his family, invade the banquet hall and a row is started. A policeman passing Rosen's Café discovers a fire. Rosen is notified. Giuseppe dashes from the banquet hall into the burning café and rescues Rosen's insurance papers and the note. Rosen, delighted with having saved the valuable papers, tells Giuseppe that he can have his daughter as long as the papers have been rescued, and emphatically says, "I should worry?"
