George's vaudeville partner quits their act, claiming that fellow performer Betty has broken his heart. George then teams up with Charlie, a stranded trouper he meets in a boardinghouse, and Irving becomes their manager. Later, in New York, the "Two Black Crows" are starring in their own popular revue and saving to build their own theater on Broadway. Betty comes to the theater with her gigolo, who poses as a cousin and induces George to hire her into their act. When George becomes smitten and showers Betty with jewels and money, she tries to persuade him to invest in oil stock her lover is selling, and though their act is a success, Charlie fires Betty. When Charlie and Betty's gigolo quarrel, Charlie is smashed over the head. Realizing that he has been duped, George is called to the hospital, and in desperation he does bits of the act for Charlie, who, as a result, regains consciousness.
