Lucille has received a note saying that he is coming to see her, and is much alarmed when she reads that sailors A.W.O.L. will be arrested. She is upstairs looking after a patient when he arrives, and Monty is refused admission by the nurse in charge. Playing sick in an effort to gain admittance Monty is carried roughly upstairs by two clumsy hospital attendants. The doctor tries several things on him in an effort to diagnose his case. While he is on the table, Lucille walks in, and Monty makes a hurried exit. But he only gets a few moments with her before he is taken back and ordered into the steam bath. He escapes from this after being thoroughly steamed out. By this time, the head nurse has called in the navy military police squad. And soon Monty and Lucille find that not only are the doctor and the attendants chasing him but that the navy police also are on his trail. But Monty manages to elude the navy men, and is about to stroll down the street with Lucille when he bumps into the hospital attendants. They turn him over to the military police and poor Monty is dragged back to his ship. Written by
