While the story underpinning this one act musical comedy has not yet been established it did include a secene which is described in the Theatre Magazine as 'the banker interlude.' This was played out between Roy Rene and George Melrose.

One song known to have been incorporated into the work was a duet between Albert and Maud Bletsoe titled 'Ab-dab Honeymoon.'
