Tight 21-minute runtime — shorter than most television pilots.

A man persuades a young mechanic to sell him his work overalls for a fancy dress party. The father of the mechanic, employed in the same garage, witnesses this transaction by chance. He is appalled that his son has accepted the deal. He takes him aside and a quarrel breaks out.
