He goes on his vacation and while on the boat several young ladies are attracted to him, much to his displeasure. Upon arriving at the hotel he meets with the same annoyance from other girls, and is surprised to see some of the young ladies, who traveled with him on boat, stop at the same hotel. When shown to his room, he is attracted for the first time at the appearance of the chambermaid, so much so that he musters up courage to invite her out some evening. Much to his surprise she refuses. He tries to enjoy himself at a summer resort in various ways, but every time the admiring girls keep him fleeing from place to place. He gets an idea to stop it all by manufacturing a family for himself. He proceeds to buy a photo of a lady and child, with endearing notes on it, as if they were from his own wife and child, and places them in a prominent place in his room. Some of the girls in the hotel pass his room at the same time the chambermaid is busy in the room. They stop and talk and see the photos and immediately spread the news that he has pictures of another man's wife in his room. In the meantime a famous actress is on her honeymoon. They come to the hotel for a few days, and it just happens that Glen's photo is of this actress. The actress's husband, returning to his room from the hotel office, mistakes Glen's door for his own, and going inside discovers his wife's pictures on Glen's dresser. Thinking she has given it to Glen he rushes into his own room and accuses her of having given the photos to Glen. She protests her innocence and husband and wife then proceed downstairs to the office to settle the matter. Here they meet Glen, who, in the meantime, has progressed somewhat in his love affair, talking with the chambermaid. The husband rushes up and demands an explanation and causes quite a scene as guests gather around to find out the trouble. Glen at first is puzzled, but upon being shown the photos the husband sees the joke and both of the men proceed to give the summer girls the laugh. Gwendoline, the chambermaid, meanwhile has slipped out. Glen follows her and catches her at the boat landing. He invites her to go out on the lake with him. She accepts and when he has her alone, convinces her of his love, and all ends happily. Written by
