A sign, informing callers of their absence during the summer, is conspicuously placed in the window. After the couple have departed, Hank and Lank, who have been covertly watching them, come on the scene, scrutinize the sign, and with the happy thought that possibly the absent occupants may have left good food in the larder, try the front door, but find it locked. Not without hope they slip around the house and after trying several windows find one unlocked. Lank raises the sash and after helping Hank through, follows closely after. The window has admitted them to the kitchen and they lose no time in exploring about the larder and the ice-box. Their search is successful, as Hank has found a large, juicy steak, while Lank has returned from the dining room with liquor and cigars. Hank starts a fire in the stove and after filling the room with smoke succeeds in turning out something fairly palatable. The two, though somewhat annoyed by the smoke, sit down to an enjoyable meal. The scene changes to the outside of the Summerford home, showing the open window and volumes of smoke pouring from it. A passerby sees the smoke and thinking the house on fire rushes to a fire box and turns in an alarm. The engines hurry to the scene and a stream of water is turned into the open window. Hank and Lank, inside, swept from their feet by the sudden torrent, seek refuge under the tables and chairs until the firemen turn off the water and leave. Then, gathering up the remains of their repast, they leave the house. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
