Discharged from the 372nd Infantry because of a bean shortage, Smithy looks for work and lands a job on a construction site. He assists in building a house but soon stirs up trouble among the crew. When the owner departs for a week, a mis‑sent letter meant for Mr. Smith reaches Smithy, who nonetheless finishes the house. The owner returns to find the project completed, commends Smithy, and then the final support beam is unexpectedly removed.
