Fred has enlisted mother as a partisan supporter, but Robert has checked him in turn by enrolling father as his advocate in the family and honors remain even up to their invitation for papa to Robert and mamma to Fred to inspect the new gymnasium that has been installed in the little lady's home. Neither Fred nor Robert has had any great encouragement from Mary, who indeed has become smitten with the new physical instructor her parents have engaged. Manning, becoming a victim to Mary's charms and incensed at the attentions of the two boys, he falls in readily with a little joke Mary plans for the boys on the occasion of their next visit. Manning is to privately convince each of the boys that he is a remarkable boxer and then when the boys propose to Mary she will silence the arguments for each by proposing that the boys don the gloves and do battle for her and let the best man win. Manning and Mary make a getaway and while the boys are endeavoring to obliterate each other they are quietly married and return to find the young game cocks so exhausted they are sitting on the floor, wearily trying to land a finishing blow.
