Synopsis
Simon Haldane, a timid bachelor, lives alone with his cat and works as bookkeeper for the Faulkner Phonograph Co., and though he offers many improvements, everyone--from Easter, his maid, to Bob Wyeth, the star salesman--treats him shabbily. He resents the attentions of women, particularly those of Agatha, a stenographer with an eye for romance whose marriage proposal is accidentally recorded. But Doris, a stranger, finds his address and comes with her mother to demand that he marry her; when he refuses, she promptly faints and is allowed to stay overnight. Doris gives Simon confidence in his ideas; he is promoted by Trundle, the general manager; and he gives Wyeth a drubbing when he offends one of the ladies. Then Faulkner introduces his daughter, Julia, whom Simon recognizes as Doris; Simon proposes; and they live happily together as man and wife.
