Min's Away Synopsis
With his wife in the country, Andy gets polished up and goes out sporting. A flock of girls are playing pushball. One of them gets caught on a limb. Gump cuts her down and she falls for him, making the husky trainer jealous, but the girl won't let him punch Gump. The ball rolls down a hill, Gump fleeing before it. The ball bumps him all over the landscape and he arrives home battered and torn. He shaves again and uses hair restorer on his face instead of shaving lotion, causing a heavy beard to grow. In front of a ladies' Turkish bath establishment he sees the husky trainer and ducks into the bath parlors, hiding in the steam cabinet. In trying to escape he is discovered, but he disguises as a woman taking off the beard with hair remover, and is put through various grilling treatments by a woman attendant. Finally escaping to the street, he is followed by the husky trainer, but asks a policeman to protect him from the "masher." The cop escorts him a short distance when the brawny sweetheart of the policemen, mad with jealousy steps out of a doorway, beats up her rival whose wig falls off revealing Gump to the trainer who puts him to rout.
