The act was fourteen minutes long.
Kimberley and Mohr sing and talk in front of a club smoking room backdrop. The props include a piano, a table, and two chairs.
One man enters as he talks to his poker group offstage. He sits at the piano as the second man enters. They have a conversation about how the second man is jealous of the first for still being a bachelor. The conversation evolves into a song.
It was a good idea to simply sing and let the audience fill in the details of the plot. "The two men are singers and they have the good sense to sing without trying to 'act out.'" The act was an "unqualified success."
