He is carrying a golf bag and one club, but he eagerly accept their invitation to join the game. Lloyd tees up and take a swing at the ball with a strange looking club. It opens into an umbrella and carries him off the tee. His newly-found friends furnish him with another club and he scoops out a divot as large as a door mat. The next swing is a complete miss and one of his friend hands him a huge club. Lloyd's shot hits Dr. Frank, the keeper of a private sanitarium-a polite word for insane asylum. On the second tee, Lloyd again smacks the ball down the fairway and again it hits the doctor. All through the game he hits the doctor until this individual is mad enough to kill him. At the finish of the game Lloyd's gentlemen friends are met by a chauffeur who tell them that their car b waiting. They ask Lloyd to visit them at their home. Lloyd gets into the car and is driven to the sanitarium-;- He does not know that his new friends are a bunch of nuts that the squirrels have overlooked. In the sanitarium, Lloyd is surprised at the behavior of some of the people he finds there until he discovers that they are all lunatics. A beautiful girl begs him to help her escape and makes her plea very forcible by kicking Lloyd every time his back is turned. Doctor Frank is in charge. The doctor orders Lloyd into a straitjacket but a mouse runs into it and Lloyd tears the jacket to pieces. Then he meets a man with a wonderful invention-a self propelled airship which works ok for him, but which lands Lloyd in a heap outside the walls of the asylum.
