The boys decide to tie a rope to Alex's tooth and the car, and then follow a mad ride through the streets, near collisions, narrow escapes, and the like; until finally the tooth is removed. Lois then secures the boys jobs as strikebreakers on her father's street cars. Protected on all sides by a martial guard, they proceed to the car barns, molested on all sides by the striker's bombs and airplanes. There they are greeted by an armed guard, who compliments them on their brave attempt. Two of the boys take a street car, and the other a bus.

In a last feeble attempt to injure the strikers, they place a bomb behind three of the leaders. A dog who has witnessed the proceedings places it near them, and then pursues them when they flee. Thus it is only the shoes, collars, and hats of the boys which we see in the final shot, for their bodies are department heavenward.
