4152 Code GEKI Saturday Afternoon Mack Scnnett
Featuring Harry Langdon
In 1864, Lincoln declared all men equal, but husbands must have been excepted if we are to accept this very comical story.
The Saturday noon whistle blows and shop workers start the stampede for home. Harry is delayed in reaching home by one of his co-workers who persuades him to join him at two o'clock with two friends, Pearl and Ruby. Harry's wife gives him a cold reception and, after a diverting scene in which she discovers his cache of small coins, she permits him to have ten cents for ice cream and soda.
Very much to her surprise, he slips out to keep the appointment. How
he gets away and gets rattled around in the rumble seat and then is returned
to his wife very much the worse for wear must be seen to be appreciated.
Even friend wife regrets that she let him have that dime.

4153 Code GEKO All Night Long Mack Sennett
Featuring Harry Langdon
Harry wakes up in a theatre several hours after the performance is over to learn that his wife has gone home without him.
In the darkness he tries to find his way out and runs into burglars in the office breaking into the safe. The leader, a former sergeant in the American Army in France, recognizes Harry as one of his privates. All night long they recount their life at the front.
Nannette, the sergeant's particular friend, invites him to supper and to bring a friend with him. Harry is the only available one and least likely to offer "competition," using the sergeant's expression, and is invited. With Harry and Nannette it is a case of love at first sight, much to the sergeant's chagrin. In a series of comical episodes we see the sergeant wreaking his vengeance on Harry until he is made lieutenant through his rescue of the colonel.
A hilarious comedy with a war background.
