Flying Romeos Synopsis
Cohen (Sidney) and Cohan (Murray) are partners in a barber shop, always squabbling with each other, both being smitten by their beautiful manicure girl. She is fascinated only with aviators, so, determined to win her, both take up flying. They find themselves in the same aeroplane, taking beginner's lessons, fighting with each other and causing the craft to do all sorts of random crazy turns and loop-the-loops. This impresses the plane's owner so much, he commissions them to do a Lindbergh-like "Hop" across the ocean. They miraculously make the flight, but in the end, they find another pilot has married the girl.
Homer Comes Home Synopsis
Ne'er-do-well Homer Cavender ventures to the city from Mainsville in an effort to find fame and fortune. Both elude him, and after clerking for two years, Homer returns home for a vacation. Impressed by his flashy clothes, the townspeople assume that Homer has achieved success. Attempting to win Rachel Prouty from his rival, Arthur Machim, Homer continues the deception by announcing that his employer, Kort and Bailly, has dispatched him to enroll stockholders for a proposed new plant to be built in Mainsville. Machim discovers the sham and denounces Homer as a crook. Meanwhile, Homer returns to New York, convinces his employers of the merits of his plan and comes home triumphant, with a proposal for both the new plant and for Rachel's hand in marriage.
"Homer Comes Home" is currently leading in ratings, making it a stronger choice for newcomers to the genre.
