One day when bowling, Art becomes so engrossed in the game that he forgets an appointment that he has with Madge, to whom he is engaged. Madge comes to the alley to get Art. There she meets Rube and they are mutually attracted. This so angers Art that on the way home he quarrels with Madge. Madge returns Art's ring. Art then seeks Alice, who is queen of the bandits, and engages her to abduct Madge. Madge later arises in her sleep and goes to Rube's stand. Rube talks to her and not getting an answer concludes she wants a shine, so starts to shine her bare feet. Art, seeing this from the bowling alley, runs over. Alice, who is fond of Rube, also comes over and there is a general quarrel. Rube takes Madge home, foils the abductors, returns and engages in a bowling match with Art, who has previously nailed the pins to the alley, then persuades Rube, who has no money, to play for Madge against his money. In the meanwhile, Alice's bandits have succeeded in placing a bomb under Madge's bed. Madge, walking in her sleep, picks up the bomb and carries it to the bowling alley, where it explodes and blows Art, Alice and the bandits up into the skies, leaving Rube and Madge to the enjoyment of their mutual infatuation.
