At home, Bessie eats the chocolate candy and places the others in a serving dish in the hall. Then she puts in a stunning performance of Beethoven's seventh piano sonata, followed by the overture to "The Flying Dutchman".

At the table, Mr. Bostwick breaks out in song in a tremolo soprano voice, his wife recites poetry, and the Yale professor kicks his soup dish to the ceiling. The senator, who had slipped his candy into his pocket, flees this scene of madness. The next day, just before a speech, he eats his ballet-inducing candy....
