PLOT
Mrs. Waite chaperones her daughter and sweetheart rather severely. The Grouch Chaser is produced and soon mamma is distracted and the lovers are not disturbed. The first cartoon is "The Hicks in Nightmareland." Hercules dreams that he takes a tonic which gives him great strength. He wakes up to find his wife slapping his little bald head because he had talked loudly in his sleep. "The Three Loose Jointed Dancers" shows a man with a silk hat, an ostrich and a skeletonic son of Terpischore tripping the light fantastic. In "The Lovers' Version of a Chaperone" the two lovers are seated on the sofa with the ugly chaperone guarding them. Suddenly the chaperone evolves into a most hideous dragon. In this monstrous form the chaperone continues to glare at the couple through its bulging eyes, and opens the large mouth wide, showing its fangs. The dragon is then reduced to the chaperone again. The real chaperone sees the picture, and realizes that it is time for her to make herself scarce.
