A man in bed, half-dressed, gets up and throws an empty bottle to the ground. A devil in black satin appears offering a bottle, which the man refuses. He nervously searches his dining room for the devil but finds nothing. However, when he takes a cup of tea it is transformed into many bottles dancing in mid-air before his eyes. At his office, he sits and works, but soon more ghostly bottles of drink appear from drawers and cupboards. They multiply, and dance in front of him. The man crawls out, followed by a three-foot, bottle-shaped man with arms and legs. He runs down the street, pursued by the phantom bottles and ghostly rats scurrying about. He climbs down through a trapdoor into a cellar, where a collection of peculiar demons - one labelled 'DT' - dance around a huge bottle. They grab the man by his limbs, shake him up and stuff him into the bottle, before disappearing in a puff of smoke.
