Seeing that Finney annoys his sister, little Billy decides to play a trick on him. He lines Finney's hat with limburger cheese. The victim of the joke has a bad cold and cannot smell a thing. But everybody else can. He goes up on a Fifth Avenue bus, and is immediately left in sole possession. Everybody avoids him and he cannot understand why. Finally his hat is lifted from his head and wafted down a sewer. He buys a new one and meets Marion at the lake. She is with a young Lieutenant, whom she presents to Finney as her fiancé. Overcome with emotion poor Finney dives overboard and is last seen at the bottom of the ocean petting the fish and hoping that they, at least, will love him.
