- A primitive barber shop has two barbers, Fearnot Flinthatchet and Faintheart Lovejoy, the old proprietor, and his manicurist daughter, Cutie Cuticle, who uses a grindstone for a nail file. Faintheart appeals to Cutie, but Fearnot was bolder and carried her kicking to his cave. Faintheart consults Ala Gazem, a bewhiskered magician who looks into the future and shows Faintheart how, in civilized society, he would battle for the same lady against the same bold bozo, and win. When he comes out of the reverie he hops in on Fearnot's cave, where the latter is entertaining the lady in question. Faintheart takes a huge club and bounces it off Fearnot's dome repeatedly without making any impression. Then Fearnot arises, takes his trusty bludgeon and taps Faintheart but once. The latter keels over, and Fearnot resumes his seat with total indifference.
- So delighted is Jack that his rival is going away for the Summer, he takes him to the train in his roadster and gets pinched for speeding. He spends five days in jail and when he comes out he finds that his girl's cousin has been on the scene and again he is thwarted. But the cousin finally pulls stakes and Jack settles down for a little chat with his beloved, only to be interrupted by the ringing of the bell. In comes his hated rival, back home because his cabin in the country had burned down. Jack is beside himself with despair, but he suddenly thinks of an idea and calls the police station, telling them that the real speeder is there and to come and get him. And so, with his rival in the hoosegow, Jack is at last secure in being alone with his sweetheart. He hadn't figured on her father, though, and that worthy appears on the scene and suggests that it is time to put out the light. Jack agrees with him and though he follows the suggestion he does not go home.
- Position is everything in life, and Wanda, from the sidewalk, is riding in a limousine. But when the gas buggy stops, and she doesn't - it is highly evident that she has only been riding on a bicycle. A traffic cop orders her to halt. Fire engines tear down the street. Wanda dashes madly ahead. The cop tries to stop her. He falls across her handle-bars. They beat the engine, dash through a construction shanty, and he falls into a plaster vat, she onto a beam which is being raised into the air. The dinner whistle blows, and she has to struggle down as best she can. She slides on a hot bolt, tips over a bucket and a few other things, causing a vamp to get all splashed by plaster, so that the cop pinches said vamp instead. A young engineer asks her to go riding with him. Wanda cautiously takes her bike. The flivver shakes and finally stops near a roadhouse. The vamp is in a passing machine, with a deep-dyed villain. Meanwhile, Wanda steals away on her bike. The villain tells the engineer that his lady friend will drive him to a telephone. And the two go to the roadhouse. Avoiding a passing machine, Wanda dashes into the roadhouse. The villain accidentally starts the flivver, which backs into the cabaret - and into a big swimming pool. But it all ends romantically perfect when the engineer leaves the vamp flat, and drives out of the tank with Wanda.
