Lyle Tayo brings he new husband home to meet her unprepossessing family. The groom is an equally unprepossessing James Finlayson.

This was during the period when Hal Roach thought he could turn Finn into a starring comic. Alas, despite the best efforts of the directors, he didn't have it in him, and this short is erratic, with an uneven pace of gags.

Interestingly, one of the directors was Stan Laurel. He was stuck behind the camera because he had a contract as a performer with Joe Rock. The one performer who came out ahead is Pete the Pup, making his Roach debut.
