Hubby thinks his wife is asleep and soon, he, too, is apparently asleep. She rises, steals the money he won at the poker game and places it beneath her pillow. But Hubby is a wise old guy and sees this, and on Wifie's return to slumber, takes the roll, and going to the dining room, hides it in an old coat. The elusive Lady Baffles has her emissaries all over town and one of them happens to be in the room when hubby hides the roll. He hides and as soon as hubby leaves, he communicates with his partner by telegraphing on the fire grate. Soon she joins him and they are preparing to get the roll when a tramp knocks at the door. They hide. Wifie goes to the door and when the tramp asks for a coat, she goes to the dining room and gives him the coat in which hubby has hidden the roll. Baffles is baffled, but she and her assistant follow the tramp. Wifie tells her spouse about giving the coat away, and when he tells her about the hidden roll, they get Detective Duck on the phone. Duck by his rapidity in changing his appearance is soon on the trail of the tramp. The tramp has carried the coat to a second-hand store and received a coin for it, leaving to fill an aching void in his anatomy. Baffles and her assistant are close on his trail, and learning where he sold the coat, disguise and come in the store and purchase the coat. Duck has disguised himself as one of the dummies in the store and when the exultant couple pass out with the coat he falls against Baffles, who has the coat. The two crooks, taking a taxi, set out reveling in their haul, but on reaching a bridge stop to count the money. What is their disgust and humiliation to find only a baker's roll, with a note from Duck saying "have this roll on me." Duck returns to the couple's home just as they are beating up the tramp and rescues the poor unfortunate, who soon leaves them behind. Duck restores their roll and tells them that the case was almost too simple for one of his remarkable ability. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
