Synopsis: [Universal Weekly, 17 September 1927, page ?] Neely’s marriage to Connie is stopped by the irate parents of both parties, who storm the office of the justice of the peace. The love birds fly off in a car, hoping to distance the pursuing parents. They get a speed ticket and are much worried until Neely meets a lawyer friend who tells them he will use his political pull to fix them up. They call at his office half an hour later to be told that he is serving ninety days for speeding. Going out again they find on their car another ticket for parking too long, another for standing in front of a fireplug and numerous other tickets for additional violations. They try to tell the cop that they are not the owners of the car. They get another ticket for lying to a cop. In court Neely tells the magistrate a touching cock-and-bull story of his hard luck. His Honor makes an example of the pair by marrying them.
