В Каменном Веке летали слоны! Не верите? Взгляните на первый скриншот! Вождь Фердинанд издал указ, по которому все мужчины с 13 и до 95 лет должны жениться, иначе они будут изгнаны или преданы лютой смерти. Тут не то что слоны, кто угодно полетит! Мощный гигант (Харди) пришел из-за дальних болот. Там, у себя, он привык брать женщин не спрашивая. Правда, в этих краях это не так просто. Маленький Звездный Огонек (Лорел) – молодой юноша, романтик, искусный ловец рыбы. А престарелый Саксофонус много лет мается зубной болью, и красавица дочь не может ему помочь. В этой обстановке разгораются нешуточные страсти. Поединки не на жизнь, а на смерть. Удары дубинкой неприятны, но привычны, как комариный укус.

Beyond His Fondest Hopes
Director
Tony, a little newsboy, witnesses the advent of a dainty Miss, who disturbs his otherwise carefree and happy-go-lucky existence.
Pete, the Pedal Polisher
Director
Pete is a discontented hostler. Hostlers are always discontented but Pete is a little more so. In fact, he is so sick and tired of his job as the mule's chambermaid that he is fast becoming desperate. He gives Maud her morning "Massage" and is interrupted by his "steady," a queen of the avenue, and a movie fan. She "coaches" and "wheedles" him in the naturally gentle, persuasive way of her class, in this wise: "Aw, loosen up. Separate. Give yourself another frisk," etc. As Pete finds himself unable to supply his "best" with the wherewithal to attend a movie, his discouragement becomes despair.

Along the way, they meet Mewel, a waif and stray (mule) who leads them to Dr. Pipt, who has been stirring the powder of life for nine years. Ojo adds plenty of brains to Margolotte's Patchwork servant before she is brought to life with the powder. When Scraps does come to life, she accidentally knocks the liquid of petrifaction upon Unc Nunkie, Margolotte, and Danx (daughter Jesseva's boyfriend). So all go on separate journeys to find the ingredients to the antidote. (Of course Jesseva has Danx shrunken to take with her, which causes trouble with Jinjur.) Of course, no one ever told Ojo that some of the ingredients were illegal to obtain...
