Billie takes it upon herself to raise $500 for charity, much against the advice and pleadings of her fiancé. She starts her subscriptions in the building in which Jay's office is located, and as she proceeds from office to office, meets with a variety of unwelcome invitations to lunch and dinner. Despairing of procuring the subscriptions, she goes to Jay's office and reports her experiences, whereupon he proceeds to administer reprimands to the offending individuals. He eventually settles a damage bill and police court account for some $500, in addition to the check for $100 which he turns over to Billie for "Sweet Charity."
