Marge marries young dentist Bill. Marge doesn’t like having to economize because Bill is building up a practice; she envies her married friend Kay, who has a nice house and luxuries. Marge finally leaves Bill after an argument over dresses she bought. Kay tells Marge that she and her husband were poor at first, but they worked together. Marge returns to Bill and apologizes, and he says they can budget for “a few luxuries if we’re careful!”
