Slapstick comedy all about love and kidnapping near the sea.

The Mayor and the Chief of Police have offices in the same building, and are both enamored of the chief's stenographer, Dolly. However, she gives most of her attention to young Sammy, secretary to the Mayor. Approximately, 11 minutes survive from this two-reeler.

Sammy can't get any attention from his girlfriend Dot because all she can think of is Charlie Chaplin. She sends Chaplin an enticing letter and Sammy a rejection, but the two get mixed up, so Sammy dresses up like Chaplin.
