Plot
A summary from Motion Picture Herald reads:
The comedy concerns a girl for whom Barris falls, her sister, and the latter's husband played by big and big-voiced Edgar Kennedy, who believes Barris is making advances to his wife, and who pursues him with a large shotgun. It goes off at the wrong time, of course.
Reception
"This Harry Barris comedy contains more really funny gags than any of the previous things in which he has been featured," a critic wrote for Photoplay. "It's fast and funny," a writer for The Film Daily claimed, "and about the best short that Barris has appeared in."
