They run inside the music hall, but Veronica is already on stage dancing. They call to her and are thrown out. Around back, Stan tells their sob story to the doorman, who lets them backstage. As they give her the fruitcake and flowers, a pretty lady recruits Stan as an emergency replacement in their acrobat act. He quickly fouls that up, and as the troupe chases him and Ollie, Veronica reads on the card in the flowers that they are from a producer.
She has the boys accompany her to the producer's home. He explains the mixup, but says he does need a girl for his show. He assumes Ollie is her agent. Bitten by the show biz bug, Ollie opens a theatrical agency and they are deluged by wannabes everywhere they go. They escape to the roof to get some peace, ordering sandwiches from a deli below.

When Stan returns for his suitcase, a frustrated Ollie leaves with him, handing the keys to his helper.
