The lovely and wealthy Gladys Barnes is pursued by many young men though she favors the persistent Earle. Her head is turned when her father tells her a foreign Count has written with the request to marry her. An amateur artist Gladys paints a portrait of the Count from a photo but the young men at the studio first tease her and then decide to play a joke on her and her father. Sending a telegram that he is arriving early they all dress as different versions of the Count and comic complications ensue until Gladys realizes her folly and returns to Earle.

Una rica hereva i molt bonica, Anita Barnes, és buscada per molts pretendents. Earle, un jove nord-americà, és el seu admirador més persistent, però quan escolta que un veritable comte en viu ha escrit al seu pare per demanar-li casar-se amb ella, s'oblida de tota la resta.
