Up immediately 'phones a baggage man and leaves word to call for his trunk at seven next morning. Seven o'clock arrives and Up's alarm clock does a merry jig on the chair beside the bed, but Up sleeps peacefully on. Awakening at last he discovers he has but fifteen minutes to catch the train, piles all his clothes into the trunk and sends it off with the baggage man. Then he looks around for some clothes to wear and finds everything has gone in the trunk. Clad only in his pajamas he dashes madly down the street after the departing wagon, is arrested, hauled back to his apartment, and is released when he forks over a bribe. Determined to secure clothes he enters Calvert's apartment across the hall, holds up the new butler at gunpoint, relieves him of his duds and forces him to don the pajamas. Endeavoring to make the train he is forced to forsake a slow cab, is knocked from a crowded streetcar, bowls over a colored washwoman and is again arrested. Meanwhile, the new butler is discovered by the maid and, not being able to explain his pajamas, is also arrested and hauled into the station. A moment later Mr. Up is likewise led in and complications set in thick and fast when Calvert arrives, having returned because of his sick child. Matters are finally disentangled to the satisfaction of all concerned. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
