Jones, a tramp, enters and steals the suit, putting it on, and leaving his own rags in the suit box. Next we see Dick Gray making love to Myrtle May. Myrtle accepts Dick, who places a diamond engagement ring on her finger. Jones, the tramp, enters Myrtle's home in search of a free meal. He hears a noise and conceals himself. Percy Pyne, a silly dude, calls on Myrtle and a ludicrous lover scene ensues. Jones enters, sees the young couple quarreling, and it occurs to him t play a little practical joke. He compels them to kiss and be friends, and then proceeds to marry them, despite Myrtle's protests. Percy is overjoyed, and gives a liberal fee to the supposed minister, who exits. Enter Dick Gray, Myrtle's real lover. He sees his girl in the arms of Percy, who insists that he is married to her. Dick spanks Percy, kicks him out, and then starts after the supposed minister, who is arrested by the cop, who recognizes him as a well-known crook. Jones is brought back to the house of Myrtle, who identifies him, and just then Percy enters. He sees the supposed minister and says, "Didn't you marry me?" Jones laughs, confesses, and is taken out by the policeman. Dick kisses the girl, and Percy departs, saying, "Oh, fudge!" Written by
