Ollie's house is a mess after a wild party from the previous night. Ollie receives a telegram from his wife (who is on vacation in Chicago), which tells him that she is returning home in the afternoon. Fearing his wife's wrath he calls Stan over to help him clean up. Things go downhill and they make more mess not less.

this is one of the very first laurel and hardy shorts i ever watched, definitely within the first 3 anyway and i still like it as much as the first time i saw it. i always forget how funny that ending is.
