A chatty exchange notes a tiny gathering for a concert with only ten attendees. A charlady humorously serves as a washer and confirms Mr. Smithers is home despite the sparse turnout.
A collage of cartoon dialogue and gags features an office boss scolding the boy for cigar and cigarette pilfering, a wife debating gambling with meals, a police scene with a jewel thief, and quick quips from students, a waiter, and golfers. The sketches hinge on wordplay, social foibles, and light mischief with recurring characters and punchy setups.
