The lovers try to elope. But when Bud finds papa waiting at the bottom of the ladder, he decides to postpone the event. Later, when Ethel's pa finds Bud innocently stealing a kiss from Marie, the cook, he gets an idea. Bud is confronted by Tempest who offers to present him with $500 upon condition that he wed Marie. Seeing a way in which to annex Ethel as well as the cash, Bud agrees. Pleased with his idea, Tempest tells Mike all about it, and arranges to have Bud and Marie, and Mike and Ethel married at the same time. On the day of the event, Bud imprisons Marie in the refrigerator, while Ethel dons the cook's bridal attire. While Tempest and Mike impatiently wait for Ethel, Bud's sweetheart, a veil covering her face, takes her place by his side. Bud demands his $500 and gets it. He then informs Tempest of his great desire to be married immediately. Glad to get Bud out of the way, the father agrees and the ceremony is performed. Barely is this over when Pete, a policeman, brings in the real Marie, who has been frozen solid. Then, while Mike and Tempest stare in amazement, Ethel raises the veil, blithely kisses Bud, and then speeds out of the house with him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
