Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? Sy has courted Jane for fourteen solid years; Jane still waits for the all-important question. In desperation she tries to stir Sy up. Boarding with Jane for the summer are the two young city folks, Bob and Mandy. Bob has fallen in love with Mandy and has proposed to her forty times without avail. Bob, exasperated, declares to himself that he must do something to arouse Mandy to an appreciation of himself. Jane and Bob, being both in the same frame of mind, meet and start a flirtation with each other in order to make their respective sweethearts jealous. This scheme certainly does work, as is proven by the lengths to which Sy went in order to reinstate himself in favor with Jane. The scheme still further proving its worth in the rapidity with which Mandy gave utterance to the truthful dictates of her heart when it seemed positive that Bob had been won over to Jane.
