Synopsis
Mae Carter, the wealthy ward of Colonel Nutt, a lovable bug hunter, teases her uncle's nephew Robert but finally accepts his engagement ring. After Mae is impressed by the physique of Ben the blacksmith, she dreams that she is Robert's cave woman. While eating shrubs, she is carried off by a giant and rescued by Ben, who then fights Robert and wins. The next morning, Mae gives back Robert's engagement ring and plans to elope with Ben, when Colonel Nutt, to whom Robert confides his troubles, banking on his experience with women, tells Mae to invite Ben to live with them for a month. During an engagement party, Mae is disgusted by Ben's stupidity, rude manners and his pipe-smoking mother. She breaks the engagement and plans again to marry Robert, but during the ceremony, Ben steals her to marry her in another town. After a number of escapades, Robert saves Mae and Ben from drowning in quicksand, and finally marries Mae.
