May likes him. but Jim, who secretly loves May, doesn't, and conspires with a gang to get rid of him. Jim doesn't want him killed, but simply taken out of the way. May and Percy became engaged, to Jim's chagrin, and the gang gets after Percy. Delayed one day, Percy fails to keep an appointment with May to purchase a trunk and follows after. Whitey and the gang closely pursued him. and the gang leader, finding Percy sitting on the edge of May's trunk, pulls him over and into it, locks it up, and goes for a team to take it away. An observing woman sees the act and hastens to the police station to start the machinery of justice going. In the meantime, May exits from the store, and an expressman is given orders to deliver the trunk at her house. The storekeeper puts another trunk in its place for a possible purchaser, and this trunk the gang takes, believing Percy is inside. The cops chase the gang and catch them with the trunk on the rail of a bridge, just about to heave it over, but May, opening her trunk, discovers Percy, and so not to lose him, she agrees to keep him for life.
