A colorful vignette describes gyp sies and artists joining society figures, reckless Bohemians, bold conspirators, and a performing bear in a Carefree life. The piece evokes wandering bands along a highway to Arcady and the captivating, gayest spot in Gotham’s Bohemia.
A youth named Pedro debates his future before a small brown bear called Mr Jones. Pedro longs for art and travel but fears leaving his current life as he muses on painting the city’s spires, markets, and crowds. He confides in the bear while recalling a girl with red hair and fond memories of wandering adventures.
A roaming circus troupe and their bear Jones travel through Europe. Pedro, an aspiring artist, decides to return to camp to paint his future. On a country estate he rescues a frightened girl from a purse snatcher, and she thanks Pedro as he awkwardly escapes after a brief, charming exchange.
Pedro urges the troupe to head toward New York to learn painting colors while Beau-Jean, Nita, and others plot to help. He schemes with Isaac Lovejoy to revamp a lunch wagon, painting a large portrait of Lovejoy and creating a sign to attract customers, drawing a town crowd and feeding them all as a final scene ends with a glimpse of a red gold haired girl in a departing car.
