Pay the Cashier Synopsis

Paul finds himself alone and penniless in a small town and to add to his discomfort, he is exceedingly hungry. He enters a restaurant A-La-Cafeteria and before selecting the items that would make up an ordinary meal, he samples nearly everything on the layout before the proprietor gets wise to him. In revenge, the proprietor outs him to work and all would have gone well until Paul's inventive brain exerts itself and he induces the proprietor to install a new system, namely one of the LUNCH BASKET ORDER which automatically locks as the goods are put into it. The scheme worked nicely until one day with an unusual lunch hour rush, the baskets are all filled and a cry of fire soon empties the restaurant, guests baskets and all. This so annoys the proprietor that the last we see of Paul is his being flattened against the wall with the proprietor's two revolvers pointing at him.

But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
