His head turned by sudden fame, Baxter falls under the spell of a society woman (Mona Barrie) who has theatrical aspirations of her own. She marries Baxter, then convinces him to produce a string of "artistic" plays rather than his extravagant musical revues. The plays are flops, and the woman haughtily divorces Baxter.

The Night Before Christmas
Singing narrator
Un narrador canta las estrofas iniciales del poema clásico mientras vemos la casa en reposo. Santa aterriza en el techo, baja por la chimenea y abre su bolsa. Los juguetes salen y decoran el árbol, con los soldados de juguete disparando bolas de su cañón, un avión de juguete ensartando una guirnalda como si fuera una escritura en el cielo y los bomberos de juguete aplicando nieve. Un dirigible lleva la estrella a la cima. Mientras tanto, Santa llena las medias. Su risa despierta a los niños, que se escabullen. Los juguetes se precipitan a sus lugares y Santa escapa por la chimenea justo a tiempo.
