Dir: Bud Fisher
Mutt and Jeff, like the shrewd business men and true patriots that they are, take advantage of the fact that the Kaiser is in need of a good dentist, and, through a ruse, get to Berlin and open an office. First, they prevail upon the Crown Prince to become one of their patients, and their treatment of him is so effective that the greatest long-distance fighter in the German Army persuades his father, the All Highest, to sit in the new dentists' chair. That is what the dentists are waiting for, and shortly after Mutt gets the forceps on the Kaiser's pet molar the audience in any given theatre will be allowed to stand up, and in slow, measured tones chant that ditty: "Good-bye, Kaiser Bill!"
