Summary
At a vibrant masquerade hosted by Marceline’s parents, the spirited suitor Arthur finds himself barred from entry, a consequence of his recent breakage of a prized family vase. Undeterred, Arthur devises an ingenious disguise to infiltrate the festivities, only for his clever ruse to be swiftly unmasked by Eddie, his persistent romantic rival. Capitalizing on the evening's chaotic energy, Eddie, donning a sheriff's costume, attempts to remove Arthur from contention by handcuffing him to an undesirable young woman. However, this elaborate scheme spectacularly unravels when the 'caveman sweetheart' of Eddie’s intended victim intervenes, turning the tables and inextricably linking Eddie and Arthur together in a shared set of cuffs. The revelry abruptly ends for both young men as Marceline’s parents discover their antics and eject them, leading to an enforced night of uncomfortable cohabitation in a single bed until their eventual, and much-anticipated, release.
