Now Smith has a lunch wagon. Jones, his waiter, is a single man and will, in spite of the boss' objections, flirt with the girls. Smith's wife finally objects, insisting that Jones should have a married man working for him. Ford hears of this and applies. When asked if he is married, Ford replies in the affirmative, thinking that he will be married shortly after he gets the job. Ford gets the job. Peggy comes to the lunch counter, glad that her fiancé has now secured work and anxious to congratulate him. Ford suddenly finds himself in an embarrassing position; he cannot talk with Peggy on account of the boss's rule. When she persists, Ford finds himself under the necessity of treating her roughly and finally throwing her out of the place. Jones finds Peggy weeping and to comfort her, asks her to marry him. Peggy consents and they act upon the decision. They return to the lunch counter, after the knot has been tied, where Ford observes them making love. This is more than Ford can stand; he leaves his counter and reprimands Peggy for her actions. Smith discovers that his waiter, Ford, is neglecting his work. When Ford returns, bitter at the discovery that his girl has gone and married another man, Smith fires him and gives the job to Jones who applies for the position on the ground that he is now married. Of course, a fight results; the lunch wagon runs away; the gas tank explodes; the police are called and it ends in a general rough-house. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
