Collier has been attending art school with Mae and she favors him rather than Belmont, who is the choice of her father for her. Jumping into the car, while Belmont is underneath, Collier lakes the girl to the school. Later Frank Opperman, father of Mae and Belmont arrive at the school. Mae introduces her father to Collier, but the older man has no use for the art student. There is an elimination contest on. Belmont has painted a better picture than Collier, but the latter switches a cartoon of Belmont that he has made for Belmont's own excellent picture. Opperman is mad when he discovers the trick, while Belmont and Collier have a fight over the matter. Next day there is a prize painting contest on Opperman's estate. Collier leaves his easel and brush to take a walk with Mae. A cow switches her tail in the paint and then on the canvas, making a very creditable painting of a tree. It takes the prize over Belmont's work. Then Belmont finds out how Collier's tree was painted and makes a kick. Collier shows his indifference by hanging the prize on the cow's tail. Mae is invited to take another auto ride by Belmont and she accepts at the instigation of Collier. Dressing up her black maid, Mae sends her with Belmont. At the parsonage Belmont carries the maid inside and is intending to force her to marry him, thinking all the time it is Mae. When he discovers his mistake, he hurries back to the Opperman mansion with the maid running behind. Meanwhile Collier has tried to elope with Mae, been shot at by Opperman and finally stuck in a chest, supposedly dead. Mae gets Collier out of the chest and they start for the justice of peace to get married. On the way they see Belmont coming with his auto. Collier gets Mae to lie down in the middle of the road with paint on her breast and a knife stuck under her arm. Belmont stops to look at the woman and picks up the knife. Collier runs out from behind a bill-board charging Belmont with the murder of Mae. Belmont runs away with a crowd at his heels led by the black maid. After two attempts at getting married have been foiled, and Mae has been taken home by her father. Collier is almost hopeless. Then he sees a motion picture company, who are filming a marriage scene. A ministerial acquaintance of Collier stands by. Collier has a brilliant idea and enlists the minister and company in his aid. Disguised as a groom, he gets Mae to consent to stand up with him, while Belmont is induced to act as father of the bride. The minister performs the ceremony. When Belmont finds out how he has been tricked he is furious. Later he appreciates the humor of the situation and congratulates the couple.
