One night he dreams that he is an explorer, and that he has just landed upon a foreign shore; he secures the aid of a mahout and an elephant to move his tent and belongings to the jungle, where he will take up the study of trying to find the "missing link." He builds his tent and establishes himself as comfortably as can be, and then with his trusty rifle starts out to explore the jungle. Then it is that he encounters the wise orangoutang, Joe Martin; the two are attracted mutually and the professor takes Joe to his tent and there commences his education along the lines of table etiquette. That night while the two are in bed a couple of lions come prowling about the tent. This startles the two and Bozzle takes his gun and with the help of Joe fires upon the lions. At this juncture Bozzle awakens to find the papers on his desk burning and in extinguishing the flames his own clothing starts burning, so that he is compelled to rush from the house and immerse his body in a barrel of water.
