Bunny eats heartily and refuses his wife's advice to go on a diet and reduce weight. Bunny's sister-in-law sides with him and Flora peevishly refuses to speak to them. She is greatly impressed by an advertisement stating that Dr. Shrinkum guarantees to reduce weight ten pounds per week. Poor Bunny is forced to go to the sanitarium at once, where he is placed in the "tender" care of a couple of huskies, who proceed to give the patient plenty of exercise. Bunny has some very distressing experiences. He manages to escape one morning and meets his long-lost brother, Joe. Poor Bunny is later captured and brought back to the sanitarium. Meantime, Flora, not hearing from her husband, writes to him. Bunny has been made ill by his strenuous treatment and asks his twin brother to visit Flora and explain matters for him. Joe does so and she mistakes him for John, with ludicrous consequences. Joe takes Flora's sister into his confidence, and they decide to teach Mrs. Bunny a lesson. Joe flies into terrific tempers, near scaring Flora to death. She decides the man has gone insane and goes to Doc. Shrinkum for advice. When she speaks of another Bunny and particularly a thin one, the Doc begins to think she is crazy. Then he shows her poor John being slowly sweated to death in the gymnasium. She is overjoyed to see him. On their arrival home they find Joe and Bunny's sister-in-law holding hands. Explanations all around clear up matters and the two couples are soon contented and happy.
