Percy Gay loves Byrdie May, whose angry father says him "nay." McGuirk, finding Percy swearing vengeance, follows him, believing he is on a track of an awful criminal. Percy gives McGuirk an awful throw-down from his automobile. That night, when Percy brings a ladder with which to carry away the imprisoned Byrdie, McGuirk is on. He follows Percy up the ladder to Byrdie's room and is promptly knocked unconscious by Percy, who escapes with the girl. Papa May hears the rumpus, and revolver in hand captures McGuirk, whom he accuses of abduction of his daughter. Marching McGuirk through the streets at the point of a pistol, angry papa confronts Byrdie and Percy, who have just been married. They are forgiven and McGuirk gets his.
