Quiet Dick Vernon, who lives in a cheap New York City boardinghouse, spends his vacation at his Uncle Galt's home in the small town of Boonsburg. Dressed in city fashions, Ben is harassed by gossips and chased by young women while he searches for the kind of simple country girl he has seen in the movies. Dick believes Mazie Chateaux is such a girl, unaware that she performs with a burlesque company that is briefly stranded in Boonsburg. When Uncle Galt unexpectedly inherits a million dollars, he gives Dick a large sum on the condition that the young man enjoys the high life when he returns to the city. However, Dick retreats to his quiet existence until his uncle visits, expecting to have a good time. During an all-night party, Dick has another encounter with Mazie. In the morning, Uncle Galt finds her in the apartment innocently preparing breakfast, and insists that she and Dick marry, which they do.
