Comment/Synopsis

A woman (Sally Eilers) refuses to marry her boyfriend (Reginald Denny) until her elder sister (Dorothy Christie) is married. When he accidentally runs over a man (Buster Keaton) outside their house, he persuades the man to pretend to be a great lover to attract the elder sister, but things do not go smoothly. The plot is basically a farce, but it is the second half that is more entertaining as this contains more of the physical comedy associated Buster Keaton. This is not the best of Buster Keaton, but an entertaining pre-code farce.
