A Briny Boob Synopsis

Billy is commissioned by his superior officer to invest ten dollars in flowers for a fair lady. Susceptible, as most sailors are, he presents the flowers to the first attractive nurse-maid whom he encounters. Getting mixed up in a group of classical dancers on the lawn of a public park, he replaces the bouquet by taking the flowers which they are using in the dance. Wrongly credited with rescuing a pet dog he is invited by the owner of the canine to her house to receive a reward. Arrived there he is utilized as the lover for rehearsals of an amateur version of the hectic Elinor Glyn's "Three Weeks," tiger rug and all. The usual suspicious husband being tipped off by the house-maid arrives to annihilate his supposed rival, the poor boob sailor. But before he can carry out his dire plans two traffic policemen, seeking him for violating the speed laws, invade the house. Then naturally a free-for-all fight and marathon race in which everybody takes part.
