When Marine sharpshooter Tom Kennedy goes away, wife Dorothy Granger calls detectives Clark and McCullough to follow him; she believes he hasn't left town, but is fooling around with Bud Jamison's secretary. But Kennedy hasn't left town. He shows up at Clark & McCullough's office, hiring them to follow Miss Granger around. He believes she's having an affair with Jamison. He is and she is, or might be, if the secretary ever showed up in this typically absurd short from Clark and McCullough.

It's quit an assortment and comedians and comediennes doing absurd things; even Jack Rice, better remembered from Edgar Kennedy's series makes a brief appearance.
