Max is soon making love to the wife of the storekeeper, who, out of revenge, screws a pair of roller-skates tightly onto the boots with which he is about to shoe his customer. Thus equipped, he pushes Max into the street, and his efforts to maintain his equilibrium, and lo capture his silk hat, which has rolled off, make a sight worth seeing. Failing to get the skates off, he takes a cab, into which he is assisted by the driver. Arriving at his destination he makes a precipitous entry. Once seated on a chair he refuses to move, but is persuaded to take his place among the dancers, where his erratic movements cause considerable alarm. At last he relates his adventure, and amidst bursts of general laughter, someone suggests that the obvious remedy is to take the shoes off. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
