He, very desirous of getting employer all the notice that is possible, arranges to have her diamonds stolen. While he is planning with a fake crook to steal the diamonds, a real thief overhears the plan and beats it to the hotel first. Dottie, never having the acquaintance of a burglar and not being informed that this particular crook was to look like, meets him when he enters the hotel room and blows him to champagne, gives him an autographed photograph, and on the whole they spend a very pleasant little time. He decides that it is about time to go with all the jewels and he departs. Shortly after the real crook has gone, the press agent and his burglar arrive, and much to their surprise Dottie informs them that the burglar has been there and has taken her jewels. The two of them are nearly knocked off their feet and think that the best thing that they can do is to make their escape. They do so down the fire escape and when they arrive at the bottom the fellow that the press agent has hired with the promise of a handsome reward, seeing the reward had disappeared, gives the agent a thrashing for his trouble.
