Her Lucky Leap Synopsis
All on the ship are seasick. Three slick jewelry crooks pass a necklace down Wanda's back. Wanda accidentally bumps their female accomplice, and the dame takes a long tumble into the deep blue sea. A detective tries to keep his eye on the crooks, who are busy keeping their peepers on Wanda, for fear that they lose their precious swag. They chase Wanda until she is almost bowlegged, but she manages to elude them and gets on shore. Here they spot her again, and she pops into a cab. They follow and enter her cab. She battles them and escapes to another cab. Finally, she seizes a telephone wire and pulls herself into a home which proves to be that of her aunt's. They are delighted to meet each other. She discovers that her aunt, who has considerable jewelry, is also bothered by thieves. Wanda's original pair make several efforts to get in, and when they succeed, she dives out of the window, is picked up by a passing motorcycle, and finally lands in the police station, with the thieves hot on her trail. The two plumb into the arms of the law, and Wanda is rewarded with a cop's coat, hat, and badge.
