With dreary visions of Mrs. Rooney ordering him out of the house and telling him to stay out until he gets a job, poor Rooney dares not go home. From a newspaper headline he decides to adopt the "lost memory" plan, particularly when, on reading down the column, he finds the party referred to completely forgot his past and married a beautiful heiress. Renting a flashy suit from a second-hand clothing store run by a little Jewish man, he takes his stand near the park driveway and when a beautiful heiress comes by, plans to place a big rock on his head and yell for help. After he lets several Fords go by, a big car draws near and Rooney does his little stunt, with the result that the wealthy gentleman in the auto takes him home; when the doctor pronounces Rooney's mind blank, his host leaves him to the tender nursing of his soft-voiced daughter Kitty. Rooney's eyes are mercifully bandaged, so he imagines that she's beautiful. But a charming romance is interrupted by his wife's entrance. When Rooney sees Kitty's face, he nearly faints--and regains his memory in a hurry. Mrs. Rooney takes him home without ceremony and Rooney's pipe dream is shattered.
