Synopsis: [The Film Daily, 31 October 1926, page ?] Jerry flirts with a young miss whose parents are fighting for her custody in a divorce court. Jerry settles the argument by inviting the lady out for a ride in his speed bus with dog power. Pal is all six of the cylinders. The kids later wind up aboard a boat bound for Europe, shipped aboard in a case containing a litter of young leopards. There is considerable helter-skelter business when the animals break loose but young Jerry saves the day by coaxing them all back to their cages. Jerry is also the means of bringing about the reunion of his little girl friend’s parents.
