They decide to have a hurry-up lunch of crackers and sardines. Unexpected visitors arrive and display every symptom of a long stay. The Smiths are short of provisions and Smith decides to rob the kitchen of neighbor Brown. He cleans out Brown's pantry, and returns with the plunder. Brown and his wife return from a trip to town tired and hungry. They discover the loss of their provisions and then visitors arrive at their house also. Brown resolves to rob Smith's kitchen and succeeds in stealing his own food back. Smith decides to borrow some ice from neighbor Jones. The same idea occurs to Brown and they meet in Jones' kitchen. An argument ensues, which attracts the attention of the police and Smith and Brown are both escorted to the station. Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Brown, becoming alarmed at the long absence of their husbands, decide to investigate. They meet at Jones' back porch and an officer tells of the arrest. The women run to the station and denounce the sergeant. In the meantime Jones returns and is enjoying a smoke in his den when the Police Sergeant phones him. Jones hastens to the station and squares matters, then invites the entire party to an inn for supper. The visitors at Smith's and Brown's houses get disgusted and leave, but the Smith and Brown families enjoy a jolly evening with their bachelor neighbor Jones.
