A series of bizarre mishaps on the eve of his wedding causes Tom, a racing driver, to lose his fiancée and a hefty inheritance. To regain the trust of his beloved and their families, he must face and win a big race in Los Angeles, with plenty of twists and turns along the way. With anthology-worthy scenes and a great deal of originality, the film stands as a true gem among silent-era romantic comedies.
