Lloyd Hamilton and his trademark cloth cap star
as a job-seeking bumpkin who engages in a series of misadventures at the local
unemployment agency. Thanks to his encounter with an unfeasibly large sausage,
he comes to the attention of Mrs. De Spout, a moneyed woman who hires him on
the spot as chauffeur, butler, and baby-sitter for her addled family. It will
come as little surprise that the results are disastrous. Once again, the newly
paved streets of Hollywood serve as the primary location for the shoot, but
there's a crude attempt at utilizing traveling mattes that is unintentionally
hilarious: count how many times you see Earl's Cafe pass in the
background!
