The short itself is nothing special but the ever escalating stunts and speed of the action kept me entertained.

i follow a steadfast rule that lloyd is surpassed in all aspects, and at great length by both keaton and chaplin. that being said, this one is a pretty fun little guy.

Lloyd and Daniels are as charming as ever in a great, thoroughly likable little short, with some very fun and impressive stunt-work (including the debut of the climbing stunts that would eventually be built up to "Safety Last!"). The business with the pillow was a nice touch.
