Babe, an inventor of a safety device for the controller of a trolley car and possessor of a funny little wink, arrives to demonstrate his invention to Kate. Through the aid of Florence, his confederate, whom he has managed to install in Kate's office as a stenographer, Snorky, president of a rival traction company, learns a demonstration will be given on a certain date. Snorky plants a bomb underneath the car so that when the lever strikes a certain mark the bomb will explode. However, Babe has asked Ethel to accompany him on a trial spin a few hours before the demonstration, and their entrance blocks Snorky's escape. Finding himself trapped in the death car, Snorky raves and a desperate struggle takes place between him and Babe. Babe overpowers Snorky and hurls him off the roof of the fast-flying car just as the bomb explodes. The explosion throws Babe and Ethel high in the air, but with Babe's usual good luck, he and Ethel land safely in Kate's auto. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
