- Pete is caught with the goods, which in this instance is a rabbit, which the enterprising fellow has poached from some private preserve, and our first view of him is in the police station, from which he makes an ingenious getaway. Very much on the hike he beats it for the tall timbers with a posse in full cry a short distance in the rear. Seeing a motorcar left unattended he cranks it up and putting on the fifth speed tears off a mile or two to a secluded street corner, where he makes a rapid change from his old togs to the glad clothes he finds in a valise in the car. Abandoning his stolen auto at a roadside inn he looks upon the wine when it is red in the company of a veiled lady with whom he has struck up an acquaintance. When the damsel in question finally raises her veil, however. Pete thinks it would have been a merciful act to himself to have allowed the police to catch him. The sight of the officers of the law, close on his trail, however, changes his mind and hastily donning his fair companion's cloak and hat he does another Marathon, ending in the chimney of a house which he enters through an open window. The police, who suspect his design, beat him to the roof by the outside route and nab poor Pete when he emerges, blackened and much the worse for his trip.—Moving Picture World synopsis
