When Mr. and Mrs. Brown pay them a visit, and Pearl is still washing the dishes in the kitchen, Mr. Greene, after looking at Mrs. Brown and admiring her rich clothes and lordly bearing, scolds his wife for not being the same. Pearl determines to change her mode of living. She invests all of her savings in swell clothes and hires a cook. That evening she leaves a note for Green, telling him that she is dining at the Browns, and asking him to call for her. She informs him that Mary, the new cook, will prepare his supper for him. Green has a fight with Mary and after throwing pots and pans at Jim she quits. Green prepares his own meal and then goes to the Browns. He is surprised to find Pearl, dressed in the height of fashion, and looking really beautiful and alluring. She is the center of attraction and is admired by all the men, who persist in being attentive to her, much to Green's annoyance. At last, being no longer able to control his jealousy, he insists upon Pearl accompanying him home. They go, and he is further surprised when he finds that Pearl has accepted his advice about being like Mrs. Brown, and ordered a cab for herself. Green refuses to speak to his wife until the next morning, when she appears as her old self in as old wrapper and serves him his breakfast, whereupon he determines that he likes her best that way and tells her so.
