Synopsis

Tricked into marrying a big, ungainly girl, Oswald Hardy, a student chiropractor, leaves his new wife, Emma, the following morning. A year later Oswald returns, summoned by the news of an addition to the family. A musical chairs sequence involving three babies and a cigar-smoking midget dressed in swaddling clothes suggests to Oswald that he has been tricked again, but he forgives his wife and friends and decides to stay home for a while.
