Tired of the lockstep and hard labor, they try many times to escape, but meet with little success. Their latest trial, the rubbish route, lands them back where they started from when Runt gets a bright idea. With the aid of a burlap bag, they scale the walls and make their get-a-way. Fatty is taking a stroll by the river and, the day being hot, he decides to take a swim. He does so and hides his clothes under a tree. Pokes and Runt pass this spot and, seeing Fatty's suit, decide that "one suit will do in a pinch for two." Fatty finishes his swim and returns for his clothes. By this time guards have discovered the escape and are in hot pursuit of anything wearing stripes. They see an object among the underbrush and fire at it, chase it for some distance, but upon catching it find that it is not their quarry, but Fatty in a suit of striped B. V. D.'s searching for his clothes. Meanwhile Pokes and Runt have met a couple of fair charmers and, with the money they find in Fatty's suit, they are having a fine time. They go to the summer amusement park and try all the amusements. The guards, still in pursuit, also spy a couple of vivacious chickens and also seek the amusement park. When they see the guards, Pokes and Runt run for all their lives. After many mishaps and a watery plunge they surrender to the guards and are once more happy to receive the protection of the striped suits and stone walls and glad to return to the task of making little ones out of big ones.
