The teenagers have grown up isolated from the mainland, in a sibling relationship that surpasses the limits of normal intimacy. The abrupt absence of their mother deeply wounds the three siblings, and Iris, moved by a strong need of separating herself from her brother, decides to go alone to the city for the first time.

История о молодом человеке, который решил покушать на халяву.
Забавная коротенькая комедия, одна из первых, где Стэн начал сниматься у Хэла Роуча. В ней мы видим Стэна Лорела не таким, каким привыкли его видеть по более поздним картинам. Фильм интересен также тем, что в нем играет Кларин Сеймур, молодая начинающая звезда тех лет, снимавшаяся у великого Д.У. Гриффита. К сожалению, не пройдет и двух лет, и она скоропостижно уйдет из жизни. Тут мы можем в некоторой степени прикоснуться к ее таланту, так до конца и не раскрывшемуся.
In this early short Harold Lloyd sneaks into a movie studio in order to locate an attractive young lady he's just met at a snack bar. He's retrieved a letter she dropped and wants to return it to her, but it's pretty clear that his interest extends beyond mere politeness. (She's the adorable young Bebe Daniels, so this is easy to understand.) The movie studio setting provides Harold with lots of opportunities to do what comedians do in comedies like this one: flirt with actresses, anger the studio brass, and dash through sets disrupting everything.
