When the orchestra leader strides onstage and makes his way to his podium, the audience at the bandshell applauds — and it's the last moment of harmony in the film. Of course, Laurel and Hardy establish themselves as the epicenter of the difficulties: somehow, they get out of synch with the other musicians, so when the conductor taps his baton for the band to stand up, The Boys sit down; another tap, and the band sits while The Boys stand up. Up and down, down and up — it takes a look-that-could-kill from the maestro to wilt the two back into their chairs.

Patricia "Patsy" Harrington est un peu timide face à sa mère et à sa sœur aînée Grace. Elle tente d'attirer l'attention d'un des prétendants de Grace, Tony Anderson. Suivant les conseils de Tony, elle lit un livre sur le développement de la personnalité. Pour montrer sa "personnalité" à Tony, elle fait des imitations de Pola Negri, Mae Murray ou Lillian Gish. Comme il reste indifférent, elle fait une fausse fugue avec un jeune homme pour rendre Tony jaloux, mais cela n'a pour conséquence que la colère de toute sa famille. Finalement, son père sortira de son apathie pour s'affirmer comme le vrai maître de maison, Patsy sera aimée de Tony et Grace portera son attention sur quelqu'un d'autre.
