In their hasty preparations for their respective outings for the day, Billy and Willie exchange coats. While Billy is automobiling with Mazie his car stops and he prepares to locate the trouble. Taking off his coat, he gets to work. A photograph in his pocket attracts Mazie's eye, but alas, it is not her picture. Explanations are futile, and in rebuff, Mazie and Billy part. The disconsolate lover goes home. Life is no longer worth living and he decides to end it all. Practically the same difficulty confronts Willie for Madge has found a photo of the strange Mazie in her sweetheart's pocket. Billy decides to hang himself to a water pipe in his kitchen and leaves a note to Willie bidding him "Good-bye." But the kitchen pipe was not meant for a scaffold and Billy's weight brings it down. The pipe snaps and a deluge ensues. Whiskers, a notorious burglar, is "visiting" the apartment at the time and is attracted by the noise. He finds Billy and at pistol point orders "Hands up." Billy begs Whiskers to shoot. Whiskers demands money for the murder. Billy consents. Whiskers' feet get cold but he agrees to have a friend do the deed. Billy pays him $100, and Whiskers exits. By this time Mazie and Madge have met and an understanding is reached. The girls hurry to the boys' bachelor apartment and beg for forgiveness. Now Billy's chief worry is to avoid the death penalty he has paid for. And his fears lead him into the funniest mix-ups imaginable. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
