- In this comedy, which is the best of the recent series, Don Barclay is featured, and there are a number of laughable situations in a restaurant, particularly a dance with a fat woman, and a good scene dealing with the sugar scarcity. It is of the knock-about type, and should please the average audience.—Moving Picture World synopsis
- Don enters the café for an evening of pleasure. After outwitting the check room boy, he occupies a seat of prominence as the entertainment begins. He mimics the classic dancer to the hilarity of the other patrons and when Whystewso, the Italian tenor, attempts to sing, Don appropriates a pie, furnished by another disgusted guest and slams it in his face. Ordering his dinner, Don is forced to go through several yards of red tape to obtain sugar for his coffee, only obtaining it when the manager signs an order for the luxury. The sugar (one lump) is brought in, set in a jewel case and as the waiter times the procedure with his watch, the lump is dipped into the coffee. As the evening progresses Don becomes somewhat inebriated and staggering to his feet, clutches the air, ripping off the waist of a young woman at his side. He stumbles backward and ends his evening in a big trough of flour.—Motography, March 2, 1918
