Jack Fuller expects to entertain his fiancée, Ethel Adams, at luncheon at the Brookdale Country Club. A telegram from his brothers, calling him to town immediately, makes him glad to accept his friend Bob Hall's offer to become his proxy and entertain the young lady in his place. The young mischiefs, Peggy and Dolly, overhear this conversation. As Bob Hall has never met the real Ethel they determine that there shall be three Ethels entertained at luncheon. They purchase orchids (which the real Ethel is to wear) dress up in their big sister's clothes and one at a time present themselves for Bob Hall's entertainment. Having been instructed to spare no expense. Bob provides an elaborate lunch for the first scapegrace, and when on the appearance of the second she confesses that she has played a joke on him, duplicates the luncheon for Dolly. In the midst of this second luncheon the real Ethel appears and Bob is in considerable trouble. Only the timely return of Jack from the city and the sight of the two girls laughing outside the café window from the club porch saves the situation and Bob from eternal disgrace.
