Chester, enjoying the attention of two ladies, is knocked cold by Charlie and follows the two women to a nickelodeon. Charlie enjoys himself seated between the two women but Chester and another man send him flying through the movie screen.

The slapstick humor is a little less refined than what I normally expect to see from Chaplin, but the taste in humor, ingenuity and raw wit still piques my interest in a way only Mr. Chaplin can do.
