Plot:
As the seasoned veteran, Colonel Buckshot, prepares for yet another exciting hunting trip abroad--in the meantime--the bedraggled vagabonds, Stan and Ollie, enjoy a clear sunny day at the park, unbeknownst to them that they are about to start a fire-fighting career. To flee from a persistent Forest Ranger, unexpectedly, the boys find refuge at colonel's palatial mansion, taking advantage of his absence; eating his food, and going as far as pretending to be the owners. However, when the aristocratic couple of newly-weds, Lord and Lady Tarbotham, arrive in hopes of renting the manor, only a clever disguise may save the intruders. But, where is the rightful proprietor?
