A woman irons while wearing a birthday / dunces cap in a bedroom. Two other women burst through the door. The three embrace each other and spin in a circle till then each one begins dancing different dances. There is a close up of an iron left on the ironing board, burning a garment. The three women start conversing, and a screen shows their dialog, “Well! Where’s your costume?” The woman in the hat turns back to her garment, which is on the ironing board. There’s a close up of the iron, with steam coming out of it. The woman in the hat picks up her costume, which now has an iron shaped hole in it. There is a quick cut, and the woman’s hat disappears. She throws her costume to the ground and is angry. The screen reads, “I have an idea. Wait a minute!” One women leaves the bedroom, and goes into a hallway. She steals the neighbor’s newspaper and brings it back to the other two women. Screen reads, “There’s your new costume. Come on, get into it!” The two visiting women remove the resident woman’s robe, revealing her breasts. The woman who stole the newspaper begins to put paper on her friend to create a costume. After a few camera cuts, they have turned the newspaper into a complete outfit. The shot changes to the neighbor, an elderly woman, who comes out of her room into the hall to see her paper is gone. The elderly woman goes into the bedroom, and the screen reads. “So that’s where my Sunday paper always goes!” The neighbor tears the newspaper dress off the woman, revealing her breasts again and the scene ends.
