He asks to go too, but Fatty says "nothing doing." Beside a lake, they sit down, and Fatty, after lunch, falls asleep. Lucy is peeved and when a young city chap waves to her from a canoe, she smiles back. Soon she and the stranger are paddling across the lake to the opposite shore. Zeb comes up, calls Fatty's attention to what is going on and they rush around the lake to pounce on the city chap. He proves more than a match for them, however, and the two friends get a ducking in the lake. Later, they overhear him invite Lucy to go auto-riding and Zeb suggests that he hold up the auto, and Fatty, who is to hitch on behind the car, can appear at the right moment and do the hero act, thus winning back his girl. Hiram, the sheriff, sees the conspirators and believes them to be real bandits. He ties Fatty to the automobile with a long rope, then goes after Zeb. Lucy and her escort get in and drive off, and poor Fatty is yanked along the muddy road at an alarming rate. Suddenly the car stops and Fatty hears a gruff voice command "Hands Up." Not knowing that Hiram had captured Zeb and the gruff voice emanates from "Danny Hayes," a real bandit. Fatty rushes forward and overpowers the fellow. The city chap, badly scared, runs until he meets the officers who are after "Danny." He brings them back and the robber is arrested. Fatty, on learning he has captured a real bandit, swells out his chest, while Lucy shyly takes his arm. With scornful looks at the crestfallen city chap, they walk off and later see Hiram, in his mistaken zeal, driving poor handcuffed Zeb ahead of him on the way to the lockup.
