At the first opportunity, however, Heine sneaks from the restaurant, and hiking to a quiet spot in the woods, starts donning his convict "make-up." Katrina misses Heine and sets out for the ball with a large club. The boys are having a grand time with the girls, especially the village constable, who has stolen a march on Heine and arrives at the ball dressed as a convict. Reaching the hall, Katrina mistakes the constable for Heine and is about to murder the poor devil when the constable removes his mask and arrests her. Katrina begs off, however, and deciding to remain at the ball, accepts the constable as an escort. Meanwhile, in the woods, Heine has donned the convict "makeup" and is about to start for the ball, when a small boy sees him and informs a party of hunters that a desperate convict is at large. Heine is furiously pursued by the hunters, whom he imagines are a band of villainous cut-throats. Making a frantic dash for liberty, Heine dashes into the restaurant and causes a panic. The hunters arrive in pursuit and Heine dives through a window. After a desperate chase, the hunters are about to capture the supposed convict, when Heine dashes into the ballroom and hides under a table. The hunters follow him and mistaking the other convict for Heine, they seize upon the village constable and drag him out of the hall. The constable soon proves worthy of his star, however, and turning the tables on the hunters, he marches them off to jail. Heine comes out from under the table and to his horror bumps into Katrina. Off comes his mask and what happens to Heine is sufficient. At the conclusion Katrina is once more seated in state at the cash register and poor miserable Heine is back on the job as a waiter.
