Description:
- Fatty and his girlfriend are at the beach. He stops to watch some boys who have a jelly-fish. An intertitle reads: "A Fine Specimen of Jelly-Fish". There is a close-up of the jiggling jelly-fish. one of the boys tells Fatty that he is like the jiggling jelly-fish. Fatty knocks him down and leaves. The boys decide to get him. As Fatty kisses his girlfriend, the boys sneak up and hit him on the head. He gives chase, falls and gives up. A man in a wheelchair is being wheeled into a garden. Fatty and his girl are climbing stairs to where the wheelchair is. Fatty falls several times. The man in the wheelchair is helpled away. The wheelchair is empty. The boys again catch up to Fatty, punch him and hit him. He falls several more times. The next intertitle reads: "Fatty's Day Off" and "On Fatty's Trail". As the boys slowly sneak up on him again, Fatty tries to sit in a chair. It is too small. The boys watch his discomfort with amusement. Fatty spots the wheelchair and sits in it. The boys have a rope and tie to the chair when Fatty is having a drink. As they pull on the rope, the chair, of course, takes off, much to the surprise of Fatty and his girl, who looks on. The boys pull until they get the chair on a hill. The people at the top of the hill watch and laugh. The man to whom the wheelchair belongs takes off in pursuit. Some Keystone-looking cops arrive and a boy turns a hose on them.
