Laurel and Hardy are on the run from the law in this very funny short that evolves around putting their pants on. With the police on their heels they are constantly interrupted in their attempts to get into civvies that takes them from the back of a taxi to the top of an unfinished LA skyscraper, stumbling and bumbling all the way.
For those unfamiliar with silent L&H this is a superb introduction to a team who excelled in both the sound and silent eras. Silence holds no barrier to the boys as they innocently convey luridness and let their slapstick speak for itself. Once up on the girders, comedy or not, moments of heart stopping gags take it to another level. One of their last and best silents.
