Karl Dane is in London celebrating with wife Vivien Oakland. George K. Arthur is the waiter tasked with getting him to pay his bill after everyone else has gone home. Dane gets Arthur drunk, and they switch clothes, so the two men tasked by Miss Oakland with bringing Dane home, bring Arthur instead.

It's not very good, even though it has some practiced and usually funny performers, like Irving Bacon and Charlie Hall among the cast. The opening is chaotic, showing us everyone but the two leads, and Dane's participation is kept to a minimum. Although he and Arthur had become popular in a string of MGM comedy appearances during the silent era, his command of English was very poor, and it shows here, in a badly set-up comedy.
