Bob Larkin, is informed by the hotel clerk that Bob has been called out of town for the day. As he is passing the time away in the hotel lobby, he is attracted by a young woman, whom he learns by inquiring is Edith Van Norris. In a spirit of adventure, Billy finds out her address and starts for her home, but on the way sprains his ankle in avoiding the auto of Dr. Stoddard and is taken to a hospital, where, to his astonishment and joy, he finds that his nurse is to be none other than the girl he had set out to find. Billy enjoys himself so much at the hospital that when the doctor informs him that he will be out in two days he decides to find some way to remain. He sends for his friend Bob, and getting him to smuggle in something to eat, pretends that he has lost his appetite. He also acquires a feverish appearance by violent exercise behind locked doors. These "symptoms" of sickness alarm his nurse, who sends for the doctor in a hurry, but that wise man soon discovers the deception and also the cause of it. The doctor decides that a homely old nurse would soon make Billy well. This proves to be true, but not until the new attendant has discovered his supply of food hidden beneath the pillow. Having been pronounced cured and sent home, Billy returns to the hospital, hoping to find Edith. Here he learns that she has left without giving an address. Billy becomes downhearted. To cheer him up Bob takes him to a party given by his aunt, and while there Billy, wandering disconsolately about the grounds, again meets Edith, resulting in their both discovering that they are suffering from a lasting attack of love-sickness.
