Jimmy Aubrey winds up trapped in a mansion where a pretty girl is being held prisoner, and a copy of men try various mystical passes at him. Jimmy winds up hypnotizing himself.
Aubrey, like Chaplin and Stan Laurel, was an alumnus of the Fred Karno company. He achieved stardom in a series of short comedies, but while he was clearly a skilled comic mime, his material was rarely first rate. Here, under the direction of Harry Sweet, he gets to show himself off well, but a poor print and one that lacks a beginning does not help him.
