- Desperate Desmond wants beautiful Rosamond, and wants her at any cost. He's desperately in love with her, which fact causes him to do desperate deeds. At the psychological moment, he abducts her with the aid of two minions. Claude Eclaire, Rosamond's hero and sweetheart, manages to train the villain, and, after some thrilling adventures, saves the girl and with her bravely plunges into the sea to escape Desmond and his myrmidons. The desperate fellow, however, pauses just long enough to curse the luck and then starts in pursuit with Gomgotz and another wild man from Borneo. Despite the brave efforts of both Claude and Rosamond, the hunters gain ground, or rather, water, for the scene is laid over the briny wavelets. The fugitives soon repair to a semi-submerged, friendly house. There, from the chimney top, they bold the fort. Unable to make any headway, Desperate Desmond conceives and executes a diabolical plan. He puts a bomb in a box, lights the fuse and sends it by the water route on its errand of destruction. Luck does not relish being cursed, and smiles upon the lovers. The faucet is open and the sink running over. The box with its smoking burden tries to navigate under the sink, but the falling water holds it there and renders the bomb harmless. Claude captures the bomb, relights it and, thus armed, turns the tables on his pursuers. With his beloved Rosamond he leaves the enemy stranded and boards the ship to freedom and happiness. Desperate Desmond, defeated and crestfallen, swims back to the ship, but the anchor is as far as he can go, curse the luck!

- Claude Eclaire is in a happy frame of mind, not because he has just bidden au revoir to beautiful Rosamond, but because he is to see her again soon. Contentedly he stretches himself upon a couch to sleep, perchance to dream. He does dream and of his beloved one. He is about to embrace her when Desperate Desmond and his minions capture him, carry him to a deserted wharf and leave him securely tied to a post with only his head above the water. When the tide rises it will be all over with Claude. Safe at home, Rosamond abandons herself into an easy chair and is soon feasting upon a vision of her hero. But, alas! Desperate Desmond and Gomgotz scale the steep wall of the house, quietly enter through a window, bundle up the sleepy beauty and then all three gain the street by a spectacular descent down the sides of the building. They hasten with the precious burden to an isolated shack, wherein they lock her up for future reference. Meantime, the rising waters have reached up to Claude's mouth and a swordfish comes to the rescue by sawing off the cord and our hero swims safely away to the aid of his dear one. The sweethearts are in each other's arms when the King of Villains and his heelers unexpectedly return and again make them prisoners. Rosamond is put under lock and key, while Claude is rushed over to the sawmill, strapped to the saw table, and "Saw, you bunk hero, saw!" The Beautiful One in her dungeon, is hit with a telepathic wavelet, smashes the door into a heap of kindling wood and, gun in hand, saves her noble Claude, who in turn lashes Desmond to the saw table, bids him a grinding finish, and proceeds to bask in the light of Rosamond's eyes. The Desperate Chap, however, is not so easily gotten rid of. He cleverly fools the buzz saw and vows to get "hunk" on Claude.
