It is harder still to get him to school. Here, his exuberance causes disorder in class. He fights with his classmates, turns over desks and benches and runs away, along the road, where he continues his mischievous actions. The boys follow. To escape from them, Willy hides in a large laundry basket. The laundress, not knowing, carries it away and empties the contents into a tub in which she pours water. Willy finds the joke less amusing and gets out of the tub quickly, pulling an obstinate bedsheet behind him. He returns to his own home and hides under the table in shame. But he left a trail behind which was discovered by his father who gives him a whipping. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
