Storyline

With all the good influences and favorable surroundings of a model home, Mr. and Mrs. Gray cannot understand why their son, Jack, does not prefer it to all other places. Jack seeks pleasure elsewhere and his father finds fault with him for his non-appearance at supper-time or his delay in getting home a certain hour at night.
