Harold is at a club where shimmie-dancing is strictly forbidden and when he is seen by the head waiter to be breaking the rules he is warned to stop of else he will be thrown out. But when a waiter spills an ice cream down Harold's back by accident, Harold tries to shake it off and is seen by the head waiter to be 'shimmying' and is then thrown out. Harold finds his way back into the venue only to be chucked out again. This time he lets off a fire hydrant which is conveniently in a direct line to the entrance, soaking all the patrons inside through the open door. Harold sneaks back home at 2am and tries to sneak upstairs without making a sound but when he trips over the dog and spills a plant it wakes up the entire household. In the western town of Piute Pass, Tiger Tip Tompkins takes care of business when some gunmen ride into his saloon and start shooting up the place. REVIEW COMPLETE TO 7 MINUTES, JUNE 3, 2022 |
