Jimmy will be rich when the world adopts Technocracy. He wants to marry the mayor's daughter but he thinks Technocracy is thinly veiled communism. When asking for the mayor's daughter's hand in marriage Jimmy breaks his clock. The mayor sends him out to get a new one. While trying to escape a policeman he's in a jam with Jimmy runs into a Social club run by Technocrats, who trick him into delivering a clock with a bomb in it to the mayor. When the bomb falls out of the clock the race is on to get rid of it before it blows up.
