When George Mac Alister, Baker's boss, fires secretary Miss Tracy, she gets her revenge by changing the amount on the policy to $1,000,000.

Moore makes entertainer Avery Jamieson, bartender Harry Gargan and elderly hatcheck girl Mother Hodges his beneficiaries.

When she fails to get Moore grounded for imaginary "fainting spells", she tricks him into a forced overnight stay in a sanitorium for alcoholics.

While his car is repaired by Elmer Frawley, a blacksmith and the hay wagon driver, he becomes better acquainted with Moore, and they decide to get married.

Moore's erstwhile friends fear that he will replace them as beneficiaries with his fiancee, so they manage to slip him (and Baker) some sleeping powder so that he will crash when he flies to Las Vegas to get married.
