Sweedie, the cook at the Prim household, is a little too rough to suit Mr. Prim, who is about three feet shorter than herself. He decides to discharge her, but finds it rather difficult. After being handled like a rag doll, he goes to his friend for help and is overjoyed when told he might have their maid, as they are leaving for the country that evening. When Mr. Prim sees the maid, he is delighted. She is smaller than himself. After hiring a taxi and buying her flowers and candy, he takes her to his home where, to his dismay, Sweedie greets her with open arms, exclaiming "A bane sister." Sweedie has found her long-lost sister and they walk out arm in arm, leaving Mrs. Prim to do the cooking.
