The pseudo-Charlie disports himself with considerable energy and ends his visit with a farewell acrobatic stunt on the chandelier that buries father, mother and Dottie beneath a pile of parlor plaster. Charlie is seen to wink violently as he leaves. A short time after Sammy decorously appears for his usual evening call and hears the whole terrible story from Dottie's feverish lips.
