[edit] Story
Mr. and Mrs. Hardy wish to have a quiet night in their apartment, but are prevented in doing this when Mr. and Mrs. Laurel pay a visit. After Stan says he'd like to go for some ice cream, he and Ollie go out for some but prevent a shrewish woman committing suicide on the way back home. The floozie is very ungrateful and makes various threats against the boys unless they look after her. They spend a frantic evening trying to keep her out of sight from their wives.
