Flo, along with most of the population, is lionizing Heinrich Von Berger, a tenor of renown, much to the chagrin of her sweetheart Harry. Coals are heaped upon the fire when Harry calls on Flo and sees the tenor’s photographs in every corner of the parlor. His annoyance is added to when Flo tells him she has received invitations for herself and her friend, Betty, to attend a private recital of the tenor, and that Harry and his friend, Charles, must escort Betty and herself to the affair. On the night of the recital Flo and Betty are greatly annoyed by the actions of Harry and Charles, who poke fun at the tenor’s singing. They leave in a huff; the girls declare they will never speak to the boys again. Harry, realizing now that Flo’s admiration for the tenor is greater than he thought, tries to apologize for his prank, but to no avail. One day Flo notices a help wanted ad in the paper for a maid and a butler in the tenor’s home. She decides to apply for the position that she can be near her idol. Flo sends for Betty and tells her of her plans. Betty tries to discourage her. Flo insists, and borrowing one of her own maid’s dresses, she asks Betty to accompany her and wait outside while she applies. If she is not out in fifteen minutes Betty is to know that she is accepted. On the way over they are met by Charles. He determines to follow and see what’s up. Standing a distance away from the artist’s home he sees Flo enter. When Betty, who has waited the time limit, approaches him, he asks her for an explanation. She tells Charles all about it, and shows him the ad for the butler and the maid. Charles loses no time in telling Harry of Flo’s adventure and Harry decides to apply for the position as the butler. He is accepted. Harry’s appearance in the house is distasteful to Flo, and only tends to widen the breach between them. He pokes fun at her awkward efforts to impersonate a maid. Harry lays plans to bring her in conflict with the eccentric German. He seizes his chance, when Flo, in her first attempt to cook, is putting her best foot forward to please. On the stove is a great pot of soup boiling, and Harry, unseen by Flo, drops handfuls of salt into it. Flo takes it into the dining room. The wife pours out the soup. Flo watches her idol with eyes wide open hoping her humble efforts will please. He drinks a spoonful of the briny fluid and nearly chokes. Flying into a terrible rage, he demands of his wife to know who prepared the dinner, and when she points to Flo, he lets loose a volley of biscuits at her. Flo, in great fright, runs from the room. The artist dashes after her with the carving knife. Harry, rushing to the rescue, disarms the German. Flo dashes out of the house and home, followed by Harry. Her opinion of the great singer is now changed. She and Harry go to the parlor and throwing all the photographs of her former idol on the floor, they do an Indian dance on his longhaired head as Flo vows never to love anyone else but her sane hero, Harry.
