Babe (John's wife) and her mother are so surprised that for a few minutes they let him run things. Babe has an idea and tells her mother to wait. Mother goes to visit friends. That afternoon, John gets home and finds that the breakfast things are still in the dining-room and kitchen; Babe comes along and explains that she forgot to get supper in time. Several other little things have happened also because mother is not there. John goes out on the steps to think things over. Babe uses about seven cents worth of salt in cooking their simple supper and John misses mother's cooking. He decides to go and bring mother back and is overjoyed to find that she is just visiting the Smiths. On his bended knee he coaxes her to come back and she reluctantly consents. To make things interesting she fills her suitcase with bricks and makes him carry it for her. Once more on her native heath she reaches for John's familiar neck to discipline him hut Babe interferes and John comes to mother's relief. The three decide to start all over.
