The Prince's servant-interpreter pursues the thief so hotly that he rids himself of the booty by thrusting it into a packing case before a ladies' clothing shop. The shopkeeper, unpacking the voluminous pants with other goods, believes them to be the latest style in ladies' skirts from Paris, and displays them as such. Two society belles. Rutha and Silvia, resolve to add this real Prince to their collection of suitors. In search of "exclusive" gowns to wear to a hall given in his honor, both girls meet in the shop and quarrel over the pants. Rutha gets them, and Silvia departs in anger. Rutha, wearing the Prince's pants, arrives at the ball with Reggie, her escort, and creates a dignified sensation. The Prince arrives, wretched in the embarrassment of shabby trousers. The guests stare at these miserable pants because of their similarity to Rutha's costume, and the sensitive Prince curses the garment anew. Silvia fastens to him, but he suddenly forsakes her and makes straight for Rutha, convinced that she is wearing his beloved pants. When he has convinced Silvia that he is not proposing, but seeks only his elusive pants, she stubbornly refuses to give them up, and defies him to get them. The Prince prepares to use force, but his nerve fails. At last, he melts in helpless tears, and Silvia flees. She leads him a wild chase until she finds refuge in Rutha's home. From Rutha's window the girls drop down the pants, with flowers attached, and a great gladness enfolds the Prince. Relieved, and friends once more, the girls embrace.
