The story opens in a moving picture studio and showing a comedy company looking for a scenario and location to make a comedy. Shots are shown of other comedy companies at work. The scenario writer is found and he submits a story to the group entitles "A Beauty Parlor" The director reads the story to the company, scenes of the story flash on the screen, showing it to be an old-time comedy story, and the characters who are supposed to play in it "listen" to the end, having slept half of the time during the reading. Finally the whole company rejects the story in favor of the custard pie variety. Written by
