This is a very funny little comedy. Bebe and Bud are running a spiritualist racket and take a break. Bebe sees Harold and Snub running the 'gold ring' con: Snub shows up, looking for his valuable ring, and then after he's gone, Harold shows up, produces a ring and sells it to a mark. Bebe observes this, recognizes the short con, and then takes Harold and Snub's bankroll.
Harold and Snub wind up at Bebe's place of business and start making a mess.... but Bebe still wins. Atypical and the available print from Grapevine Video is poor. It's also badly chopped at the end, but there are smiles aplenty before you get there.
