Martin Ellis goes to visit his friend Neil Spencer. Neil has been called out of town, but leaves a note telling Martin to climb in through the window. Martin arrives and enters as instructed; that night two others arrive the same way: "Second Story Pete" and Eva Warren, who is being initiated into a Bachelor Girls' Club. Martin sees the crook and at once notifies the police. His courage then deserts him and he takes refuge in bed. Eva, dressed in man's clothing, he mistakes for an accomplice of the burglar, and being a timid man by nature, our hero seeks refuge in a bed. Eva is also frightened by one look at Pete and takes refuge in the same bed. Then Neil returns from his trip with a policeman that Martin has telephoned for. Pete escapes, but Martin and Eva are discovered in a compromising position. To save Eva's reputation Martin says she is his wife. The girl consents, and they marry.
