Pat is collecting tickets on the Creepy Crawley Express. He succumbs to the charms of a fair young thing, who sets his heart thumping so loudly that it can be heard above the roar and rattle of the locomotive. He tried all the artful little blandishments he knows of, but the fair creature regards him with a Sphinx-like gaze. There is also another admirer of the lady on the train, and he promptly casts Pat out of the carriage window for presuming to rival him. Under these trying circumstances Pat’s stout heart fails him not, and he makes his way to the baggage wagon where he hides himself in the lady’s dress basket. Upon arriving at her destination, the fair one has the basket taken to her hotel, and Pat soon finds himself hidden in his beloved’s bedroom. He has a cautious peep around, and discovers that his rival has also surreptitiously entered the apartment. Pat cannot restrain his indignation, and thus betrays his presence to his rival, who promptly draws a revolver and opens fire upon him. A deadly duel follows, and the two bloodthirsty villains entirely wreck the bedroom. The noise caused by their violent efforts to wreak their vengeance attracts the other guests who, with the able assistance of the hotel staff, proceed to give them a lesson in the conduct of their future love affairs.
