An argument ensues whether man is or is not superior to woman. It results in the men folks remaining at home to prepare the evening meal. They fail of course and engage a caterer. At the theater Uncle Todie and Benton Holmes discover Helena Wrangle, leading lady. When four irate landlords from four small towns arrive and threaten to tie up the show, Uncle Todie proves an easy victim, and, with Helena Wrangel, hurries to rob his penny bank. But Aunt Jim arrives and there is a terrible time trying to stall her and get Helena out by disguising her as a chair. When success comes and Uncle Todie is giving Aunt Jim the lecture of her life about the superiority of man, the caterer comes in with the dinner and spoils the situation.
