The boss tries to kiss her and she wrecks his office; then in seeking to capture a frog she manages to break up nearly everything in the outer office. After hours she meets a sheik and it is love at first sight. Inviting him home she tries to make him jealous by inviting a lot of fellows. He retaliates by luring them to the window disguised as a vamp and pitching them out and then surrounding himself with chorus girls. Wanda then jumps off a building in despair but lands on a flag pole that breaks and sticks in the ground.
