[edit] Plot

Oliver Hardy is preparing for his wedding day to the daughter of a wealthy oil magnate, Peter Cucumber. His friend Stan Laurel is of course the best man. While visiting Ollie in the morning, Stan reveals his wedding present - a jigsaw puzzle. The boys soon become preoccupied with the jigsaw, and it starts to involve other people - a taxi driver, Ollie's butler, a telegram delivery boy, even a cop. Cucumber is enraged at the delay at his daughter's wedding (especially after Stan has a wreath delivered to the reception), and makes his way to Ollie's house. The jigsaw itself is almost completed except for one elusive missing piece; the cop insists that no-one can leave the house until it is found, including Cucumber. A fight breaks out, leading to a police raid in which all are arrested instead of Stan and Ollie, who manage to hide themselves. The puzzle gets knocked over in the mayhem; Ollie's telegram advises him to invest quickly in a company, but a radio newsflash says the company took a "tremendous crash and failed". As he leaves, Stan actually manages to find the jigsaw's missing piece, but before he can do anything more, a furious Ollie throws him out of the house.
