They arrive in the city and, unconsciously, put up at the same hotel. There is only one bath left, connecting between two rooms, and they are assigned to these rooms. The similarity of their names causes the house detective to watch the rooms. Wifey goes to take a bath and is scared away by Hubby's sneezing. Hubby enters the bathroom and locks the communicating door. Wifey, indignant, beats on the door. Hubby sniffs the perfume she has left behind, and thinks of his wife. He writes a note of apology and retires. Wifey sniffs the cigarette butt he has left and thinks of her husband. She also writes a note. The house detective, his suspicions aroused by the constant slamming of doors, enters and arrests Hubby for playing Bo-peep under the door. Then he goes to arrest Wifey. Each gets into the other's room and sees his or her photograph on the dressing table. With a cry of joy they clinch as they meet in the bathroom, and when the detective interferes they drown him in the tub. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
