Percy is his nephew and Gladys the daughter of Marshall's partner, but the two have never met. Both decline to be married in this offhand fashion and not the least of their reasons is the fact that each is in love with a stranger met in a chance encounter on the street. They cannot know that they have met in this informal fashion and the executor of the estate is in despair until the thought of marriage by telephone suggests itself to him. To this they accede and over the wire they say the words that make them man and wife in name only. Then they go their separate ways each vowing never to set eyes upon the other. Mr. and Mrs. Carter, happy in their own married life, set out to bring the young couple together in their country home and in pursuance of this plot invite them down for a week end. They meet and find, each in the other, the object of the admiration that followed the chance encounters. A rattling little comedy plainly told in spirited action.
