She doesn't like either one, saying that Bob is too fat and Slim is too thin. They decide to go to a sanatorium to try to meet the requirements by treatment. They reach the station and try to get a team to take them to the sanatorium, but everyone turns them down because of Bob's weight. Finally they get a wagon and start on their way. They go but a short distance when the wagon breaks down, the driver is sore and chases them both. They arrive at the sanatorium and are immediately put in training. At mealtime Bob gets a cracker and a small glass of milk; Slim gets enough to feed an army. Slim is fed on milk by a funnel and hose into which an attendant is constantly pouring milk. Johnson is so sore that he grabs a large steak from Slim's plate and runs out of the window, followed by Slim. He eats the steak while running down the road to the station. Arriving back in town they go to Jennie's home and rushing in find her with her wig off. They are then willing to let the other fellow have her and both exit.
