Dad answers the advertisement of a rich young widow who wishes to marry, but when she calls on him he does not like her appearance and pretends insanity in order to get rid of her. He's taken to a sanitarium. The widow, however, was only "made up" to look old and homely, and when she removes her disguise, the son immediately falls in love. He calls a minister and they are about to be married when dad, who has escaped from the sanitarium, comes in bringing with him a newspaper man. The widow and reporter recognize in each other a childhood sweetheart, and leaving the dumbfounded father and son, take the minister and go off to be married.
