The Boy gets his prized automobile from storage and encounters numerous difficulties in trying to get to the theater on time for the performance. With The Boy still absent, The Girl replaces The Boy with another actor. The Boy arrives in costume just as the play concludes, but he comes onto the stage to accept the audience's cheers.
