Harold Lloyd Jr. Shows up in town, gets a room to stay at Florence Lake's house, and a job at Jonathan Hale's department store. He's worried about keeping his job. He has an irresistible urge to chase fires. He chose this town because it didn't have any fires, but now there's a rash of them, and suspicion falls on him.
Lloyd isn't very good, especially when talking with old pros like Pierre Watkins, whose daughter, Cathy Downs, has a crush on him, store manager Byron Foulger, fire chief Herbert Rawlinson, and Johnny Duncan, who runs the store's stock room, when he isn't singing. They provide most of the interest in this movie, with their images of small-town eccentricity. But someone there is a fire bug. Who can it be?
