He takes his daughter's engagement ring: from her, but subsequently shows the tenderer side of his nature by giving her a pearl necklace. When Morris Levy learns of the treatment accorded his favorite son, Joe, he is very angry, but Joe's recital is interrupted by a telephone call from the idolizing but perplexed Zetta. He rushes quickly to her, and as the lovers are talking over the exciting events of the day, old Marx returns and adds more trouble by again ordering Joe out of his house and snatching the pearls from his daughter's neck. When Joe Levy gets back home with this recital of fresh indignity his father rushes out to remonstrate with his humble neighbor. He goes to Marx's shop and the quarrel is renewed by the elders with as much gusto as their youngsters make love. While this wordy war rages Zetta steals in and, unobserved by either, picks up the necklace her father dropped in his excitement. After Marx serves a customer he looks for the necklace and, as he cannot find it, immediately charges old Levy with the theft. This starts things. Young Joe, in distress, calls Zetta and she promptly comes to the front with the necklace and such a clever explanation that the family amenities are restored and all is well.
