A man is left to mind the baby while his wife goes out to do some shopping. The infant beginning to wail, he tries various methods of quieting it, succeeding at last by making himself up to represent the mother. A friend coming in finds him in his new costume and persuades him to go down to the café on the floor below. They take the precaution of first attaching a rope to the baby's cradle which they pull when seated at a table. An extra vigorous pull jerks the baby out just as the wife enters. Grasping the situation, she attaches the rope to a full pail of water, and the next pull drenches the unfortunate husband, and the wife following, vigorously completes his discomfiture.

Original Danish title is undetermined.
