Street policeman Chester Fields falls in love with his sergeant's housekeeper while on patrol. Since he has also fallen in love with his domestic help, he brings her some flowers and happily moves away.

When Chester's sergeant finds the baby and tries to bring it back, he scares Chester off and brings her home. There she visits Chester again and tries to win her heart until the sergeant finally shows up and chases him away again.
