Rube discovers that Helen and Dolly occupy the room next door. The girls, actresses, learn that the inquisitive chap is peeping through the keyhole. Taking a hat pin, Helen sends Rube away bowling. Later the girls rehearse their new act. Rube hears Helen vow to kill Dolly’s sweetheart the moment he appears. Ignorant of the fact that the two are actresses, he believes that Helen intends to commit murder. The girls discover his error and decide to play a joke on him. The two secure the aid of Teddy, who is also on the stage. Rube bores a hole through the door in order that he might see what goes on. Teddy enters, and to Rube’s horror, Helen stabs the man and then places the body in her trunk. Rushing out, Rube goes to summon the police. Upon hearing Rube’s story, the chief of police orders his men to the scene. After numerous mishaps, the officers arrive at the hotel. The men break into the room. Instead of a scene of slaughter, they find Teddy, Helen and Dolly devouring a meal of crackers and cheese.
