Andrew is of the goodly sort, while his brother is a full-fledged sport. Bill, while out with two or three friends, accidentally brushes against a building which has been freshly painted. Returning home he sends for a cleaner who comes and gets the suit. Andrew complains to his brother of a severe headache. A note is delivered to Andrew requesting that he call at his sweetheart's home to discuss arrangements with her father for the church fund benefit. Bill suggests telephoning that Andrew is too ill to attend. A better idea comes to him, however. He puts on his brother's suit, discards his cane and goes to his brother's sweetheart's home. He is requested to play a piece on the organ and shocks his new acquaintances who have taken him to be Andrew, by playing rag-time. In the meantime Bill's suit arrives at his apartment and Andrew dons it. The good brother is met on the street by several of Bill's friends who, not detecting the difference, insist that Andrew join them in a drink. Andrew does so and, "Oh, what a headache." The two brothers return to their apartment, where they retire. They both dream of their experiences of that day. The two brothers are played by one man. The confusion that develops in the brothers impersonating each other is screamingly funny. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
