He purchases a book guaranteed to teach all the ins and outs of that trade in four lessons. Fortune favors him and he applies for a position the same day that Clawson, the Smalleys' cameraman, is injured. Waterloo is given the injured man's place and the strange, unfortunate and thrilling experience he goes through during his first and only day's work in this business, furnishes the material for the comedy. Waterloo is shocked at the results of his work. The director is paralyzed and the actors rise in a body and go after the unfortunate young man. Waterloo escapes with his life, never again to enter a motion picture studio. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
