Their theft arouses the entire town, and as a result, the Boob determines to become a detective and hunt down the daring criminals. Accordingly, he purchases a manual which gives instructions in the art of detecting and sets out upon the case. His first clue leads to the arrest of a burro. Meantime Fred and Rena have carried away the safe of the National Bank, The Boob runs across them but they turn the tables on him, making him a captive and tie him to the safe with a stick of dynamite underneath. The safe blows up. Fred and Rena rush to examine its contents, but the blast has only freed the Boob and he makes them prisoners, just as the city detective arrives and takes them in charge.
