The genial confidence men assume the roles of "business doctors, sick and dying enterprises cured while you wait." The eggbeater concern of one Pushman is the patient, but the reason for their interest is a selfish one. Pushman is heavily indebted to G.W. Slookum, who threatens to close the place, and Slookum was a member of the criminal clique, who ruined the father of the Warden girls. The enterprise suddenly becomes Pushman, Inc., Kitchen Utensils, and old Slookum, who becomes intensely interested, receives his money. Lots of loud talk of big money and the open books of the concern, left where Slookum gets a chance to see them, causes him to free himself from the tidy sum of $45,000, just the amount he extracted from old man Warden. Meanwhile, Toad Jessup has a little trouble with Slookum over some apples which the latter thought he has stolen, but when he proves his innocence before the town constable, Slookum's cup of woe is filled. The last he sees of Wallingford and Co. and his roll is when they take the first train out of town.
