Arthur Moon, a champion archer, who has a medal which he values highly, lives in a fashionable apartment with his wife, Gypsy. Ben, the janitor of the building, who believes in letting his wife do all of the work, is in the hall sweeping up when all of the trouble over the medal takes place. Paddy, the peddler, seeing the curtains in Arthur's window swaying back and forth and thinking it is someone trying to flirt with him, climbs up the fire escape and enters Moon's apartment.
