John Brown, the mate on a river steamboat, rescues a small boy from the clutches of a villainous deckhand, thereby gaining the roustabout's bitter enmity. Absorbed over the events of the day, the mate fails to bestow upon his wife the usual home-coming caress. Annoyed, she greets the coming of the stranger as a possible foil to arouse the husband's jealousy in punishment for the slight.

The stranger promises to bring back the husband. Brown is waylaid by the rascally deckhand, who, with a companion, ties the mate to the wheel of the steamboat.

Brown is carried to his home, where he is revived. Matters are explained and a happy family reunited. The stranger goes his way.
