As mad as a hatter, Bud heaves bricks at the fickle dame and his rival. Mary presents Ham with a ticket for the ball which the Garbage Gentlemen are to give the following night. Bud, however, steals the ticket from the envelope in which Ham has put it, replacing it with a pawn ticket. On the night of the ball, Bud hastens to the hall and is admitted. When Ham arrives, he presents the pawn ticket, only to be put out on his ear. He tries to sneak in by the back way, but is almost drowned when one of the waiters throws a bucket of dirty water out of the windows. Resorting to strategy, Ham induces the bouncer-in-chief to step outside for a moment. Calling the man's attention to something down the street, Ham hits him behind the ear and knocks the bouncer unconscious. Stealing the man's badge of office, Ham pins it to his own coat and thus gains admission. The first thing that greets his eyes is the sight of Bud dancing with Mary. The next instant, Bud imagines a ton of bricks has hit him over the head. In the meantime, the bouncer revives and tears into the hall on vengeance bent. Ham and Bud see him coming. A riot ensues and the two flee for their lives. Every man in the hall takes up the chase. This leads through a brick yard and for a while it rains bricks. Ham and Bud, armed with huge sledge hammers, finally take their places on both sides of a narrow alley formed by rows of bricks. As each of the pursuers passes through the alley, Ham and Bud knock him flat. Mary is the last to emerge. Bud hits her and she falls. Furious, Ham knocks Bud out with his sledge. Then, in his great grief, he brings the sledge down on his own head. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
