James Gleason has been drinking so heavily that instead of meeting his wife to see a show called FLORIDA, he took the train to the state. Now he is back home, still sozzled, and Mrs. Gleason and brother John Litel decide to pull a gag on him in which a ring turns him invisible, allowing them to discuss their concerns freely.
