The Comedy Team's Strategy
Directed by Pat HartiganHeindal, the theatrical agent, awakes in a very bad humor and goes to his office with a decided grouch. The comedy team arrives in town and applies for booking. They are told that there are too many "hams" in the business already. Jack and Jane propose to teach the agent a lesson. Jane disguises as a man and Jack as a woman. Jack pretends to meet with an accident and is assisted home by the gallant Heindal. Then Jane, in masculine attire, confronts the agent, declaring that he is trying to break up the home and producing a huge bomb, she states that they will all die together. She secretly strikes a bass drum and the terrified agent thinks that the bomb has exploded. "Can we act?" ask Jane and Jack removing their disguises. They are booked for Heindal's entire circuit.
