On a flivver trip in the west, the Gumps are encamped. Andy demonstrates how Min can reduce by following his instructions in daily calisthenics. Some ants get down her back and she does the hula, a bad example to set for little Chester, says Andy. He is shocked when the ants get at Chester, who goes through the same contortions. While he is moralizing the insects reach him and he does it too. Chester gets into a flight with a big boy and begins to get the best of him. Andy draws up and enthuses over the fighting Gump, just like his father. The strange boy's father, a giant, announces that if Chester whips his boy, he will fight Andy. Andy calls for Min, who makes Chester stop. The Gumps are thrown off the land, which belongs to the bully. They go back home and go to bed. Min walks in her sleep, out the window to a steel beam, thence to a building in construction, where she walks confidently over dizzy heights. Andy, afraid to wake her up, follows, crawling along the perilous beams. Chester calls out the fire department. A stew bum gets hold of the fire hose and throws a stream in the air upon which Gump falls. He is lifted on the water jet to the top of the frame, where Min is in danger. He grabs Min and they are both lowered to safety on the receding water jet.
