Synopsis by Hans J. Wollstein

Bobby Ray and Oliver Hardy are rival bellboys at the Hotel Bilkmore in this two-reel farce, one of four "Mirthquake Comedies" the team would make for low-budget Cumberland Productions. The guest in room nine (Frank "Fatty" Alexander) is carrying a large bankroll, which both Ray and Hardy plan to help him spend. The Bilkmore, however, is rather ramshackle and a loose nail causes room number nine to appear as number six, causing Ray to repeatedly give the wrong guest a bath. Hardy, meanwhile starts a fire to divert attention from his plans to steal the bankroll, but he is caught by Ray and the inevitable chase is on.
