The film is a very mild comedy and begins with a not especially funny scene involving his car not quite making it up the hill. Later, he gets pulled into the middle of helping a friend out of trouble and Charley's wife thinks he's cheating on her. In the end, Charley and three others dress alike in a mildly funny segment, but other than that it's a pretty forgettable film that just didn't have a lot of laughs. And while this isn't one of the funnier silent comedies ever made nor is it one of Charley Chase's better ones, it is interesting because you get to see Charley's real-life brother, James Parrot, acting with him. Both brothers were frequently used by Hal Roach as actors in the silent era and both worked as directors for Roach as well (Charley using his real name, Charles Parrot).
My advice is try to see another Charley Chase film--he made many wonderful films and this only adequate movie might give you the wrong impression.
