With Squire Skimp eliminated as a competitor and their legal troubles behind them, Lum and Abner turn their focus back to their movie theater. Dick Huttleston drops by to advise them on avoiding any future dealings with the Squire, and the conversation turns to the impressive crowds the theater has been pulling in. Lum pitches an idea for a bingo-like game to played in the cinema. Though Abner is thoroughly confused by the rules, Dick likes the concept—but when the partners begin bickering over how to run it, Dick makes a quick exit to let them work it out.

Fed up with the disagreement, Abner announces he wants out of the movie business entirely. Lum proposes a swap: his half-interest in the Jot ‘Em Down Store in exchange for Abner’s full ownership of the theater. Lum quickly drafts and reads aloud a contract to make the trade official, signatures are signed, and the deal is done.
