Mr. Fatt and his wife, a thin pair, are troubled with a bad cook. While they wait for their dinner, she takes dancing lessons from a vaudeville actor. They both fall asleep waiting for the cook to bring their meal. The cook sees this and using her friend's grease paint, blackens both their faces. When Mrs. Fatt awakes she goes to the kitchen. Her husband hears a noise. He goes down. His wife mistaking him for a colored man hits him over the head with a rolling pin. He imagines he has been hit by a negro woman. They both run from the house. Finally, all is straightened out after much misfortune and they resume their natural complexions.
