After much drilling he departs for home intent on signing some valuable papers. While doing this, one of the papers is blown into the room of a girl, whose sweetheart is one of the Chief's Lieutenants. The only way to recover the paper is to crawl into the girl's room by the window, which the Chief does. While there the girl returns and the Chief takes refuge in a folding couch. The girl, hearing the noise, mistakes the Chief for a burglar, and her screams soon bring her policeman sweetheart. The Chief is roped on the couch, bundled into the patrol wagon and is taken to the police station. They finally arrive and the couch bursts open. The policemen are all horrified at discovering their prisoner is no other than their Chief. He immediately takes revenge on all concerned in the affair.
