While Jake and Jerry, who both love Sadie, are at lunch the lunatics bury the treasure in the very excavation where the two friends are working. Jake digs it out and thinks he has unearthed Captain Kidd's long lost treasure. He fills his pockets with greenbacks and beats it. Jerry then discovers the grip, but while he is examining it a guard from the asylum arrives and has him arrested for theft. Once Jerry is the object of misfortune, Sadie decides that it is him she loves. She goes to the jail and passes her outer garments through the bars. Jerry puts them on and thus disguised he escapes. When Jerry enters his room, clad in Sadie's clothing, Jake thinks it is Sadie come to declare her love for him. His happy expectations, however, are short-lived because the true Sadie arrives a moment later and claims Jerry as her future husband. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
