Next, a son gets to treat his father the way his father treats him. In the third episode, to a shopkeeper's chagrin, a man shops for a hat the way a woman does. In the final sketch, we suppose a household in which the man gets pregnant and has a baby, while the mom, clueless about little children, is the one with the career.

Algumas cenas aéreas foram filmadas pelo próprio diretor, a bordo de uma avião com a câmera fixada na parte dianteira.
Segundo Ken Wlaschin, este é um dos dez melhores trabalhos no cinema dos astros Richard Barthelmess e Douglas Fairbanks Jr..
A história foi refilmada com o mesmo título em 1938, com Errol Flynn, Basil Rathbone e David Niven nos papéis principais, dirigidos por Edmund Goulding. Essa versão aproveitou tomadas aéreas fotografadas por Elmer Dyer para a produção de 1930.
