A man and two women who look most alike. The man and one of the girls first appear, the latter at the piano. Following a song in which his voice fairly shook the rafters, he announces that a trick will be performed that will outdo Thurston, Keller and Herman. The piano girl goes behind a screen upstage and from another screen at the side steps forth the same girl, i.e., she's such a close counterpart the deception is most effective. Then this girl is placed behind a screen in the center of the stage while from the front of the house comes the other girl. Then the two girls are shown with the "expose" good for a laugh. The girls do a number with musical instruments. The trio sing a little, dance a little and play a little none showing any class or qualification for the bigger houses. A pop house turn at best.
