When he finally does fall asleep, he has a dream of blowing up a lot of his enemies, the police, but awakens to find he has been made the victim of an explosion planned by the boys. He is arrested by the police who accuse him of causing the explosion. At the station house he makes his get-a-way and "butts in" on a five pointed mix-up between Roxie, the cook for the Mills household, her two rival police lovers and her master and mistress. Jerry saves the lives of the lovers, one from being roasted, the other from being frozen to death, but involves Roxie in a jealous row between Mr. and Mrs. Mills, and lands himself back in the clutches of the law.
