All begging and pleading on Bert's part is of no avail, for Bessie's father remains obdurate, and he is badly discouraged until he receives a letter from Bessie telling him of her father's intention to take her on a cruise in their yacht. She begs him to do something desperate and save her from having to marry the Count. He thinks hard, and finally hits upon a plan, which, with the help of the Captain of Darrow's yacht, is carried out. Disguised as a sailor, Bert obtains work on the yacht, and in the course of the voyage, which is a rough one, discloses his identity to Ruth, who is overjoyed. The poor Count, however, is terribly seasick, and begs to be put ashore. So Bert launches a boat, and rows him and his valet to land, where he leaves them. Barrow, too, is seasick, and unaware that the Count is not on board, orders the Captain to weigh anchor. The Count, from land, sees the yacht get underway, and though he frantically tries to attract its attention, his efforts avail him nothing, and the "Arrow" sails peacefully on her way to port. Later the Count is picked up by the steamer "Ontario," and immediately sends a wireless message to Darrow. Darrow is frantic, and when the Count identifies Bert as the man who left him on shore, his fury is boundless, and he forthwith discharges Bert, who gets his bag and prepares to leave the yacht. Bessie gets into the boat with Bert, who then tears off his disguise. Both Darrow and the Count are confounded, but it is too late, and one week later, Bert and Bessie, who are now married, return home, and sue for the forgiveness which they know will not be withheld.
