Plot
The characters Harold and Edith become engaged. However, a feud starts and Edith leaves Harold at the gate to return to their home. Harold follows her back and they both discover a doctor attending to their maid. The ailment forces the doctor to quarantine the home, preventing both Edith and Harold from leaving. They must now sort out their feud in the confines of their place until they both get vaccinated. Edith's mother tries to help things out by having Harold fake sickness, in hopes to draw compassion from Edith. It works briefly, until Edith finds out he's faking it. Even so, the quarrel is resolved and all things return to a happy ending.
