The Bull Moosers decide to offer Mr. Piffle a nomination for alderman. Arriving at Piffle’s home they are cordially welcomed and introduced to his wife. Vivian prepares a little treat for her husband’s friends, which treat is in the form of cookies. She invites them out to the dining room. Tea is served and everything goes along very nicely until the cookies are served. Each in turn takes a piece of cake. Dave, when asked to have another, puts it in his pocket. None of the men approves of the cookies. After they have finished, they start for home. On the way Dave gets a sudden attack of cramps, and is almost doubled up with the acute pain. Joe is also seriously ill and has to be carried home by Bill. Dave, after being questioned, tells a policeman he has been poisoned. The cop summons a little boy who is playing with a child’s express wagon and places Dave in the cart. Being too big for the wagon, Dave soon upsets it. Bill, becoming tired, accidentally lets Joe fall into a barrel. Shortly after this Vivian is summoned to court. Standing before the judge, Vivian pleads innocent of trying to poison the men. Dave offers the judge a cake. The latter is soon in great agony. Her husband pays the fine and he and his wife return home. Later they receive a letter stating Mr. Piffle need no longer consider himself nominated for Alderman.
