Only seasoned pros populate this large Chaplin cast, Henry Bergman as Mrs. Stout and Eric Campbell as Mr. Stout stray in their affections. Chaplin reprises the waiter on a lunch break theme from Caught in a Cabaret, but here the combat is conducted on roller skates. In a Keystone mode, Chaplin throws these veteran scene stealers into the mix around his float like a butterfly choreography. True to farce, Bergman and Campbell, Kelly, Edna and Chaplin line up in a mutual recognition of being caught in the act, among the lasting scenes, also masterful roller skating capped by Chaplin's stunt of hitching himself to a ride on the street while chased by skaters. Ante Keaton and Lloyd.
