Bud and Lou run into trouble roughing up Mike the Cop. Bud arranges for he and Lou to take a job as escorts to wealthy society matron Ms. Olga Van Goo (society character actress Isabel Randolph). She notes the close resemblance Bud has to the Duke of Gluten, seen only to Americans through photographs, and asks him to pose as him. Being paid $1,000, Bud agrees and Lou comes along to a formal welcoming reception as his cousin, the Earl of Waldo. At the party, Lou struggles to play a society type, but fits in telling a tall tale. Lou comically fumbles things over dinner.
The episode is slow-playing, and the plot and slapstick dinner scene feels more like the Three Stooges, but very funny nonetheless.
