Jarl Swensen, newly arrived from Sweden, is waiting at the immigration headquarters. Ole Margarine, a big Swede, gets into an argument with Jarl and tears up his passport. A trained monkey removes Ole's passport from his pocket and hands it to Jarl. This enables Jarl to get out while Ole is detained. At the gate, Jarl is met by Lars Hanson, a plumber, who mistakes him for Ole, also a plumber. Hanson tells Jarl that he is to inarry his daughter. Jarl doesn't like the idea, but changes his mind when he sees the good looking Olga. Lars sends Jarl out on a plumbing "yob." Mr. Lostchild, the customer, is trying to get rid of his wife's relations. Jarl, working in the basement, gets the pipes mixed up, sending smoke through the ventilators and water through the gas heaters. This makes things so uncomfortable that the relatives leave. Mrs. Lostchild phones to Hanson, who arrives and chases Jarl all over the basement. But Lostchild is so delighted to get rid of the unwelcome guests that he gives Jarl a liberal reward. Meanwhile the real Ole escapes from the immigration authorities. The officers chase him, but he gives them the slip, arriving at Hanson's just as Jarl and Olga are about to be married. Ole introduces himself to Hanson, and all the guests start chasing Jarl all over the place. He grabs Olga and the minister and races to Lostchild's house. After a great deal of side-splitting mishaps they finally get married. Every moment of this excellent comedy is either funny or exciting. 2 Reels Courtesy of RICHFIELD OIL COMPANY 3546-2 AGGRAVATING PAPA A Christie Comedy featuring Jinimie Adams, Duane Thompson and the famous police dog.
