Frightful Fogerty, a gentleman crook, swallows this story, hook, line and sinker. Forthwith he determines to steal the valuable dog. Hastening to the hotel in which Lillian is stopping, he tries hard to annex the hound. At the same time, the actress, siren-like, has bedazzled Fossil, a muchly-married man, into paying for her costume. While poor Fossil is admiring the costume, Fogerty steals the dog. The gentleman crook hides the hound under his coat. Blight comes along just then. Frightful Fogerty's actions fill the press agent with suspicion and he follows the thief. In his desire to escape, Fogerty enters Mrs. Fossil's room. The woman, who has been lying in wait for her husband, knocks the intruder down before she discovers her mistake. Fogerty scrambles to his feet and departs from the room in haste. In the meantime, the fleas infesting the cheese hound desert the dog in favor of poor Fogerty. At the same time, Mrs. Fossil discovers the affair between her husband and the actress. She seizes the poor man and belabors him. Blight catches Fogerty, who is now making desperate efforts to get rid of the dog. Knocking the crook down, the press agent gives him the beating of his life.
