Fred Brandon and Eileen Northcote are the two heirs of a million-dollar fortune, on the condition that they are united in marriage within twenty-four hours. Both are indignant over the will. Mr. and Mrs. Hardman, being friends of both, persuade them to submit to the marriage. This they do. Eileen standing on one side of a curtain and Brandon on the other. The next day Eileen and Brandon are house guests of the Hardman's. When Eileen has finished dressing for dinner she locks her bedroom door, and turning quickly collides with Brandon, whose room is adjoining hers. The two have seen each other on different occasions and there has been mutual admiration. Eileen threatens to tell her husband if Brandon doesn't immediately leave this room, so near to hers. Hardman and his wife, listening at the keyhole, shout to Brandon not to be afraid, for Eileen is his own wife, whereupon Eileen faints in her husband's arms.
