Kate, being the proud possessor of the luxury of Plump as her husband, instantly sees a chance whereby she can keep the job in her own household and also force Plump to work for his daily bread. Informing the young couple that she knows a jewel of a maid, she hurries home and dresses Plump in some of her clothes. Both Raymond and his wife, impressed with the appearance of the new maid, try to make it as pleasant as possible for her. However, Kate's jealousy comes to the surface when she sees her loving man petted by the young wife and Plump, to his disgust, is forced to submit to the attentions of Raymond. Finally when the young wife discovers her husband flirting with the maid, her anger arises suddenly and she orders Plump out of the house. Raymond intercedes for the maid and matters rest until Kate again catches the wife petting Plump. In the confusion Raymond learns that the supposed maid is a man and Plump is done up to n frazzle.
