She tries to make him sign the "demands" of the Wives' Club to which she belongs, and leaves him when he refuses. He telephones to the Strike-Breaking Bureau, and the manager gets a girl from the burlesque troupe to act as strike-breaker till Wifie gives in. Dolly Dimples fits wonderfully well into the Carter household, and all goes merrily till Wifie telephones to ask Hubby if he is ready to accede to her demands. Dolly's voice over the phone and the reply of Carter that her place is satisfactorily filled by the strike- breaker makes her furious and she sets out in hot haste for the house. Hubby has telephoned that he needs police protection, and when the cop appears he gives Carter a whistle, saying that he is to blow it if help is needed. When Wifie sees the blonde beauty she rushes at her to scratch out her eyes. Hubby calls the cop and threatens to have her arrested. She succumbs, and he makes her tear up the "demands" before his eyes. She consents, so that she may have the pleasure of dismissing the blonde strike-breaker.
