While Harry Gribbon and Polly Moran, a pair of entertainers, are providing amusement for a café full of people, Joseph Swickard strolls in with Billie Brockwell on his arm, Billie is a sort of vampire and she has cast a spell on Swickard, who buys champagne for his charmer. Fred Mace is a fighter held in high regard for his prowess in the neighborhood. He gets into a quarrel with Billie, as he resents her attachment to the prosperous appearing Swickard. This ends with Swickard challenging Mace to a duel. So confident is Swickard that he orders a coffin of an undertaker over the 'phone. They have a rattling fight. Some of Mace's accomplices stab him by mistake and he runs to the café with Swickard in pursuit. The fighters chase around the place till they see that Mack Swain has quietly won the hand of Billie Brockwell. The pair of lovers go out to the accompaniment of the strain, "Love Will Conquer."
