Synopsis:
Charlie is back in the park, and has managed to make two enemies. One is a man who left his wife and daughter asleep in the park to follow a young lady. The other is a man who thinks he's won the same young lady. Charlie ruins both men's chances with the girl. The deserted wife and daughter awake and invite Charlie home with them for dinner. While dining, the other two men arrive to find Charlie, who proceeds to hide upstairs. Charlie dons women's clothes and attempts an escape... only to have the two men clamoring for his attentions. Mayhem breaks loose and Charlie's secret is revealed and he gets slugged.
