The king of the cannibals and his hungry people see them coming and lick their "chops" in glee. They reach land, are surrounded and placed in the big kettle while their captors dance around. The king sends for his wives to attend the feast. Queen Lil and the other six wives hurry to the scene where Jake and Mike, in boiling water, are being tested with jabbing forks and spears. Lil takes one look at Mike, says, "How beautiful," and orders him taken out at once. She claims him as her own, and he is led off during the hubbub. Jake escapes. The queen immediately divorces the king and Mike is crowned in his stead. The king is kicked out and Mike has a gorgeous time ordering the cannibals around. In the meantime Jake has gone for his suitcase, but is taken prisoner by the cannibals. He shows them a fashion book he has, and details his awful plot to dethrone Mike. In the meantime Mike has opened his suitcase and has divided two dresses among the seven wives. Jake runs on with the fashion book and proves to the angry women how they are being deceived. They are not in the fashion at all, they are merely tit bits as it were. Mike is promptly chased. Jake is likewise chased, but the cannibals succumb to an awful fire of cocoanuts and fall one by one senseless. Then it is that Jake and Mike escape to the shore, get on their raft and sail for the open sea. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
