The Villain watches them kiss and spoon from a distance and jealously enters his heart. He "butts in" on the young lovers and the Boob gives him a swift kick which the Villain returns so vigorously that the Boob is sent flying a considerable distance. He picks up a rock and aims it at the Villain but it hits a Cop in the eye, who, thinking the Villain struck him, wallops him with his club. The day of the Tournament Parade arrives and the Boob calls for his girl in his funny little car. After considerable difficulty, he finally gets the car going. Along they go down the road, zig-zagging at a terrific speed, until suddenly the car runs into a telegraph pole. It explodes and throws the two out in the road. The Boob hurries to get some tools and while he is gone along comes the Villain in his big car and persuades the girl to go to the Parade with him. The Boob returns to fix the machine, finds his girl gone and starts in pursuit. He arrives at the fair and stops everyone he meets with the question, "Have you seen my girl?" with the result that he receives many hard punches and kicks and gets into all kinds of trouble. Meanwhile the Villain and the girl are taking in the sights, and he buys her peanuts and soda. After the parade, the girl is still hungry and wants a sandwich, but the Villain refuses to spend any more money that day. Just then along comes the Boob and the two forget the Villain in their happiness at finding each other again. The Boob buys his girl some sandwiches which she shares with him and the Villain is left standing alone, cursing his fate. Written by
