A simple old story of the girl who longs to yield to her lover's appeal that they be married at once, but hesitates to break the news to "pa." The elopement is there, too; but "pa," having overheard a certain telephone conversation between the contracting parties, is also on the job. His tactics are quite different, however, from those of the usual moving picture "pa." This particular gentleman merely steps up to the prospective bridegroom waiting in the moonlight beside the taxi, taps him on the arm and suggests they make it a daylight affair - "why not advertise and get the benefit of the wedding presents?" The suggestion is well taken and a month later an artistically staged wedding takes place.
