Henry is busily preparing for a visit from someone who might become the most high-profile customer he’s ever had. Charles Cantrell (William Glover), the social planner for wealthy kid Robert Whitney (Ryan Bollman), turns out to be much more impressed by Henry’s work than his lifestyle, but Punky, who is Robert’s age, gives Charles pause. After a bored Robert invites Punky to his birthday party, which Henry is hired to photograph, the snobby Charles stakes Henry’s job on a drastic improvement in Punky’s refinement. In order to keep from embarrassing Henry and costing him the job, Punky takes lessons from Margaux on how to act like a rich stiff. Unfortunately, Punky’s lack of actual experience shows through, and Charles thinks it would be better for Punky to wait in the kitchen with the help until the party is over. Henry stands up for Punky and loses the job, but Robert, who is not a snob, fires Charles, and then gives Henry the photographing job back. Robert had been wishing that Charles hadn’t invited any stiffs to the party, because Robert wanted the party to be more fun than Charles wanted it to be.
