Anxious to escape the strain of business and seek diversion and recreation, Robert asks his father to give him a vacation for a few days' rest. The father, who is absorbed by his business affairs, one of the old school plodders, reluctantly grants the son's request and the young man hurries from the office, packs his grip and hustles for the train. On his way he makes the acquaintance of a very charming lady, who is hound for the same place as himself. Arriving at their destination he offers to carry her grip and she accepts his proffered kindness. Loaded down he follows her to the hotel where he gladly deposits the luggage to escape a complete collapse from exhaustion. He finds his "acquaintance" very winsome and attractive.
