Through good fortune, he gets entre into a house of society, and becomes a bandmaster. While playing for the guests he recognizes an organ grinder who is posing as an Italian Count for the purpose of winning the heiress who is hostess. He exposes the bogus Count, but they will not believe him, and he is ejected. He goes to the organ grinder's room, gets his organ and monkey and returns to the reception. He enters the ballroom, and when the monkey sees his master, makes one leap on top of his chest and cries "Popper." Billy, having established that Tony is an impostor, is lionized by all. At the height of his enjoyment the cook, to whom he is engaged, appears upon the scene, and in a fit of jealousy she grabs him by the coat collar and drags him off to the kitchen.
