Jimmy Aubrey, duded up like a Victorian melodrama villain, is blackmailing Bud Duncan for Duncan's daughter, Wanda Sibbald. She wants to get married to Vincent Brownell.
This late silent short comedy obviously didn't spend much money on anything to do with the production. Aubrey, whose career as a comedian had been in decline since his first screen appearance in 1915, hams it up to little effect. Brownell is the stalwart hero for the third and last time in his movie career. Miss Sibbald gets the best laugh, pulling a funny face as she is choked by a rope, but it's far too little for a 20-minute movie.
