store owner's apartment and enticing him downstairs, only to accidentally knock over the display, spilling records all over the floor; attempting to throw a pineapple at the glass to rob the store, only to hit a policeman instead; falling over a child's toy and landing on the record; knocking over a woman's grocery bag; accidentally trading her the record for a slab of meat; nearly having a person step on the record; and lastly, melting the record right before his ascent to the radio station. In a rush, Leslie asks for the curtains to be closed. He then plays the record on the air; however, as it is melted, it produces a humorously bad effect. The band begins to play "Please" and there is apparently no singer, as Hornsby continues to be absent. Seeing no other option, an anxious Leslie bursts into song, accompanying the band with vocals that are evidently untrained. He stumbles over the lyrics and cannot produce the correct whistling tones. Anita, listening to the broadcast, looks shocked as she recognizes Leslie's voice instead of Bing's. From her facial expression, it can be assumed that she finds Leslie brave and endearing and returns to her romance with Leslie. Just in time for the second verse, Hornsby returns and performs the song, improvising alternate lyrics as a message to Anita to take Leslie back as her fiancé. Hornsby, who actually has been feigning irresponsibility to bring Leslie and Anita together, succeeds in reuniting the former lovers. Mona is listening to him in the booth; she pouts and has a black eye as she listens to him sing, looking with admiration and fear upon him. The black eye insinuates that Hornsby had assaulted her earlier in the evening as punishment for leaving him and for her asking about Anita.
