Synopsis by Hal Erickson

The punning title of this Lubin release neatly establishes its farcical mood. After a late-hours drinking party, four well-dressed young men stumble out of a hotel, feeling no pain. The foursome weaves in and out of various business establishments, finally settling at a Chinese laundry. Grabbing a basket of clothes, the revellers head to a music hall and pelt the performers with various articles of apparel. Then they climb into a car and weave their way to their various homes (drunken drivers were considered the height of hilarity back in 1909). The film ends as one of the "heroes" suffers a particular frightening attack of the D.T.s
