action

Mabel catches her husband Fatty flirting with the maid. She argues with Fatty and drives the maid to work again. The housemaid's husband appears and gives his wife a hat.

Mabel and Fatty are walking in the park. Signs indicate that cuddling is not allowed, and so Mabel reads at Fatty's side, who is bored. The housemaid and her partner have also gone to the park, where the man starts smoking and the housemaid soon goes to buy an ice cream. Fatty joins her and starts flirting. The housemaid's husband also flirts - with Mabel, who is left behind. Fatty and the maid and her husband and Mabel each walk through the park together and are promptly caught by the police. While Mabel and the housemaid's husband manage to escape, the housemaid and Fatty are arrested. They can only leave prison on $ 30 bail . Otherwise there is a risk of 30 days in prison. Both notify their respective partners, who finally appear at the police station with a guilty conscience and secret fear and deposit the bail.
