Nutt takes the kind advice and starts out with lots of the requirement to connect with old Gotrox, but all he gets is a rather strong "request" to vamoose. Seeing an advertisement for a footman, he lands it, though he knows nothing about feet, and is ignorant of the fact that it is Gotrox's house. Gotrox recognizes him but is restrained from kicking him out by the presence of his guests. Nutt helps himself to samples of all the foods and drinks in the house. Later the host tells a funny story and in laughing, Nutt who is assisting in the serving spills wine all over Gotrox's shirtfront. In his hurry to escape, he snatches a wig from Mrs. Gotrox's head and this gives him an idea. He dons the crowning glory, drapes himself in a curtain, poses as one of the female guests, and gets away with it. While they are searching for him, he appropriates various tender morsels of food and kisses the place good-bye. In the park he spreads the food on a bench before him, and rubs his hands in anticipation of a hearty meal. His fond hope goes soaring away when a cop appears on the scene and poor, disgruntled Nutt sulks off, leaving a free meal for friend officer. Written by
