Harry, who is spending some time in California as a tourist, one day takes a walk. Lois sees him, and is taken with the handsome stranger, and throws him a rose. He wonders where it came from. Later he buys some flowers. Lois is determined to know Harry, and pays a flower girl to let her wear her coat, hat and sell her flowers. Lois sees Harry and offers him her roses. He is vastly attracted to her. Lois induces the flower girl to let her take her place for several days, and Harry and Lois get quite chummy. Harry discovers the deception, and bribes the real flower girl to show him where Lois lives. Bribing the butler, he dons his uniform, telling the maid that he has taken the regular butler's place as the latter is sick. Lois and the pseudo-butler meet in the garden, and observing that Lee is jealous, Lois asks Lee to go shopping for her. Harry's awkwardness at serving tea causes Lois' mother to scold him. The demands of the real butler for money to get drink causes a delay, and Harry is scolded again. Lee comes back and recognizes Harry through his disguise. The two college youths then set upon the tipsy butler and trounce him. Explanations clear the way for Harry's formal introduction to Mamma, who looks amiably upon Harry's suit.
