Mr. Wouldby Strong is a prizefight fan and spends most of his evening trying to convince the boys what a great fighter he is. His wife becomes disgusted with him and they quarrel. Strong tells her she doesn't understand him and that he will find someone who will. With this he goes downtown to the boys. Meanwhile, Mrs. Strong's uncle visits her and she explains her marital woes. They leave a note on the table signed by the wife saying that she has left him for a better, handsomer man. They then go to the theater. Strong returns home after a good time with his friends. He falls asleep and dreams prizefight nightmares until he awakens in a cold sweat. He finds the note and completely breaks down. His wife and her uncle return and Wouldby Strong starts in to thrash the elderly man when the truth comes out.
