Kent, to win the wager, takes service in the home of Mr. Westevelt, who has advertised for a butler. Clare Westevelt, the daughter of the house, has seen Kent in college. She recognizes him and, having learned of the wager from Jack Forsyth, determines to become a maid in her own home. This is possible because of the absence of her father from home. Kent falls in love with the new maid and affairs are progressing finely when the old gentleman returns. He sees his daughter in maid's costume and demands an explanation. He is not satisfied and Clare leaves the room crying. Meeting Kent, she tells him that her employer has scolded her without reason. Kent, angered, goes in and reprimands Mr. Westevelt. Then he asks Clare to marry him. She consents and they elope under Mr. Westevelt's nose. He tells her he is not a butler and she confesses. Kent loses the wager but wins a bride.
