4194 Code GETU The Lion and the Souse Mack Sennett
Featuring Vernon Dent, Andy Clyde and Sid Smith Mrs. Van Hoosit, who has the desire but not the ability to become a film star, engages director, cameramen, assistants and others to film one of her scenarios. She takes the lead as a dancer.
During the screening, to a group of her friends, of the would-be classic dance, the assistant director arrives with a lion on the leash. Needless to say, the picture is stopped, though none too soon for the embarrassed husband, and the audience scrambles to the exits.

The sheriff arrives in time to learn that the Shylock committed the crittne for which Sid had been "doing time."
