Up to this time young Billy, who is short in stature, has been her favorite suitor, but Flossie's decision, coupled with the arrival of Count Padinsky, who is an exemplification of Flossie's type ideal of a husband, put faithful Billy a little out of the running. At Flossie's home the Count is welcomed with open arms by the family, who give a formal reception in his honor. Billy seeks to gain admittance to the function but is summarily shooed from the door. Nothing daunted Billy enters via a rear window. While making his way through the halls Billy steps into a room to escape detection. It is the Count's room. Before Billy can leave the Count enters and the unhappy lover is compelled to hide. But he learns an amazing truth. The Count is not big and powerful as he appears to be, but padded. With this information Billy happily starts out to avenge his wrongs. Three bandits and a chauffeur are hired by him. They decoy the Count from Flossie's home, pack him into an automobile, and at a lonely spot in the woods compel him to change his dress suit and pads for a ballet dancer's costume. Then he is taken back to Flossie's home and turned loose in the midst of the other guests. Pandemonium follows. The Count finally disentangles himself from the crowd and is last seen doing a Marathon down the roadway, while Billy, who has hovered near the scene, takes the frightened and repentant Flossie into his arms.
