It starts when George writes two letters, one to his sweetheart, calling for an answer to a very important question when he calls later, the other to his laundress, who has been casting sheep’s-eyes at George while she ironed his shirts, calling her down for neglecting her duty. By mistake of the messenger the letters get mixed and are delivered to the wrong parties. Not hearing from either, George decides to call on Bridget while on his way to get his sweetheart’s answer. Bridget assumes that he is on altogether a different errand, and when he insists on talking about the shirt, she casts it aside, saying there are more important matters to take up. With this she throws her arms above his neck. George demands an explanation, when she flashes the miscarried letter. George tries to explain that it was not intended for her, but she will not release him. Bolting out with Bridget still hanging above his neck, the two run into a policeman, who is appealed to by both. He has been casting sheep-eyes at Bridget, and of course, decides in George’s favor, so George is allowed to go his way, a little worse for the conflict. Enter George in the presence of Mazie. Here more explanations are needed. However, George convinces Mazie that it was all an error, and is about to take her in his arms, when she pushes him back, saying, “Oh, no, I may soil your white shirt front,” but George says, “I don’t care.” As you may imagine there is but one finish.
