This Weiss Bros. production starring veteran silent comic Jimmy Aubrey opens with the warning. "Man is clay (a woman's touch and he becomes all wet) and his name is mud." When jobless Jimmy's landlady seizes his clothes for lack of rent payment, he improvises a sailor suit and finds himself vying with a real gob for the love of a girl he's already accidentally brained with his alarm clock. Fleeing the irate seaman, he finds himself winds up stuck at a lunch counter with no money and one very punchy proprietor. Needless to say, things will get messy. Hint: there's pie on the menu.
