Between Meals Synopsis
Paul and his little pal "Sunshine Sammy" are traveling across the continent and their arrival in a small town is disclosed by the opening of a man hole cover on the top of an empty tank car. Not having much coin of the realm, the hungry pair immediately scheme to get a meal. When passing an appetizing looking restaurant they meet an apparently benevolent old gentleman to whom they tell their tale of woe. The kindly disposed man takes them into the restaurant and tells them to eat any and everything they desire and excuses himself for a moment but fails to return. The scenes which follow arrival of the proprietor whose explanation that the man who ordered the meal for them had escaped from an asylum, add to the discomforture of the now satisfied travelers. Their endeavors to make restitution and their flight from the restaurant wind up in a merry chase and their eventual eluding of the police.
