 Edgar Kennedy, in order to attend a prizefight without his brother-in-law (Jack Rice), pretends to be sick with intentions of sneaking off later. As usual, his best-laid plan takes another direction. His mother-in-law (Dot Farley) gives him a foot bath in a tub with what turns out to be quick-setting cement. His pal Sam (Bud Jamison) drills a hole in the cement to blow the cement off with explosives, with a typical-Kennedy result...disaster.
