Being somewhat late, he drives his car to the café and there proceeds to drown his sorrows. Now comes along Mr. Spinner, who after speeding things up in the café, takes Flo, the cabaret girl, out for a spin. Being pretty tipsy he can't make his own car go so he swipes the nearest other one, which, unfortunately, belongs to Binks. During his joy ride Spinner does much damage in certain rural sections, ending up by smashing Slowton's monument, but Hank, the village constable at Slowton, gets the number of the car. Spinner returns Binks' car undamaged long before Binks is ready for it. Well, things might not have been so bad for Binks the next morning when the charges were preferred against him for manslaughter, joy riding with pretty cabaret girls and destruction of valuable property, if a strange coincidence had not occurred. During the most vital transaction of business affairs at the café, Binks, lying snoozing on a divan, dreams of the pretty cabaret girls, of his taking them out spinning in his car, of numerous smashups to the other parties, of getting away from the constable of Slowtown and of the very destruction of the monument of Slowtown. So when Binks sees the warrant for his arrest, he actually believes himself guilty. He tips Hank, the constable, to give him time to make good the damages before his wife learns all. Mrs. Binks discovers Binks in the act of buying the girls hats and gowns to make amends. But Spinner arrives and explains all, so everybody is once more happy.
