Chester invites Pearl to go with him to the concert of the Glee Club, to be held Saturday afternoon. Charlotte, who is Joe's girl, receives the same invitation from Joe. Saturday the girls are all dressed and await their respective sweethearts. Chester meets Joe on the street and Joe suggests a ball game as the proper place to go to while away the time until their appointment with the girls. They go and become so interested in the game, which is exciting, that they forget all about the girls. Meanwhile the girls await them, waxing angrier every minute. Late that afternoon the boys visit their girls and each is accorded a very warm reception and is shown the door. They meet and tell each other of their misfortune. Joe lights upon a scheme. He telephones Pearl that Chester has been run over by an automobile and is badly hurt. Pearl buys some flowers and visits Chester, whom she finds in bed, with a leg greatly bandaged and with Joe attending him. Chester telephones Charlotte the next day that Joe has met with an accident and that he is stopping at his house. Charlotte buys a large basket of fruit and calls on her beau. She finds him in mortal pain, and makes up with him. After she leaves the boys dance around and sing. Pearl arrives and meets Charlotte as she is leaving. They return and find the boys in the midst of their revelry. Their villainy being exposed the girls leave them and refuse to talk to them anymore, going home to sympathize with each other as best they can and leaving the boys in more of a dilemma than before.
