Morris, struck by the appearance of the girl, does not tell her that he is not blind, and exchanges cards with her. She, much impressed by Morris, solicits the help of her friend, Doctor Horton, a famous eye specialist, giving him Morris' card, and asking him to call and see what he can do for the young man. Horton, when he calls, finds a mutual friend at Morris' house, and the three men plan to further a love affair between Mildred and Morris. To this end the doctor writes her that he can cure the "blind man," but wishes some suitable person to read to the patient and accompany him on his walks in the park. Mildred herself decides to do this. During one of their walks in the park, a couple of toughs pick a quarrel with the "blind" man, and are surprised when Morris tears the bandage from his eyes and proceeds to hand out a thorough and much needed thrashing to them. Mildred, learning thus of the deception which has been practiced leaves him and refuses to see him again. Morris and his friend call in the doctor, and insist that since his suggestion has caused this trouble, it is up to him to straighten out the tangled love affair. The jolly doctor manages to make the girl believe that he has cured the supposed blind man, and she forgives Morris, who at once avails himself of this opportunity to propose, and he is accepted.
