Her spoiled and unaffectionate mother tells her she won't be in town and she doesn't want her daughter to go with her where she's invited. Barbara, called also Babe, is quite disappointed about the coldness of her mother and relies on her father. Unfortunately, her mother tells her, he will be out of town as well. Barbara is left alone with her sadness about her parents not caring for her. That's what makes her call a friend Eddie to organize something for the evening. Eddie is with a friend Bill Evans, who asks if "she could bring something alive" with her. She answers, only the dead have to be digged out, and she will see to find something dandy and dumb. She calles an old friend, Claire Elliott. She would love to get out, but her father is rather severe and doesn't want her to go to night clubs. Babe nonetheless goes personally to talk with father Elliott and manages to convince him. In the night club the two gentlemen leave the girls for some minutes to go and say hello to old friends of them.
