Learn more- Syd and his chum, Add, are feeling rather gay and decide to take a little trip to the seashore, and give the girls there the "once over." After stealing a ride on a "jitney" auto-bus, they arrive on the beach and settle themselves on a convenient bench, when presently a flashily-dressed "chicken" passes by. Syd, with his most winning manner, goes up to her and asks her permission to share the bench with her. This granted, he gradually gets bolder, and finally tries to kiss her. She administers several hard wallops with her parasol and Syd rushes back to his friend, who is waiting for him. They decide to try their luck elsewhere, and finally come upon an elderly gentleman and his daughter. Syd's efforts to flirt meet with no success, and finally the old man and his daughter get up and walk down to the beach, followed by Syd and Add. The girl's father meets a widow, and leaves the girl for a few minutes while he goes for a stroll. Add and Syd get an idea. While the father is away, Add gets behind the girl, and shoves her into the water; the next minute Syd jumps in and heroically "rescues" her. The father comes on the scene and showers Syd with thanks, while the girl falls in love with her brave "rescuer." Syd pretends not to know Add, who comes along waiting for an introduction, so Add gets another idea to win over the girl's father. He goes to where the widow is waiting and pushes her into the water, and is just about to rescue her when Syd and the father come over and throw him into the ocean, leaving him to struggle for himself, while Syd jumps in and rescues the widow. While the girl's father is holding the widow in his arms and comforting her, Syd does likewise with the girl, while everybody forgets all about poor Add, who is sinking for the third time and finally disappears under the water.
