An actress seeking rest arrives at a sparsely staffed country hotel run single-handedly by Susan, with Rubber-Neck as the eager porter. Susan, who performs every role in the establishment, begrudgingly accepts the actress’s baggage for a short stay. Comic business arises from Rubber-Neck’s theatrical ambitions, a melodramatic demonstration of stage tragedy by the actress that alarms the staff, and a mock train-rescue sequence staged with a toy train and simple sound effects. The sketch ends with the three recognizing each other’s talent and opting to leave the quiet hotel to form a vaudeville sister act, closing on a comic note.
