This Hugh Herbert short is a bit messy, taking him away from his honeymoon with Christine McIntyre to rumba with a client's mistress (the exotic Jacqueline Dalya), and involves a third woman (Jean Willes) as well. As Herbert's new wife suffers from sleepwalking, she keeps showing up to intertupt her husband who's pretending to be an oil millionaire. Of course, Dalya's violently jealous suitor shows up, and the comedy that follows gets groans, not laughs. Shots of Herbert being chased by the jealous man has them rushing through other rooms, stepping on guests (complete with honking noises) and running into maintenance people over and over. This short partially answers the question of what killed farce.
