Muriel Van Twitchett is distraught when she finds out she has no escort for a

Her maid mistakenly dials the Acme Exterminating Company, which happens to be run by the Stooges. The boys accept her offer and show new manners to the guests. During a musical performance to a record, mice appear and the Stooges get themselves to work.
