Meeting his sweetheart, Elinor, he shows her a shotgun in the window of a hardware store, and is observed by the sheriff. The local bank is held up and the sheriff conceives the idea that the inventor is the bandit and gives chase. Simpson is warned by Elinor and they start for his laboratory with the sheriff in hot pursuit. On arriving they find a tramp has broken in and wrecked the plant but has accidentally completed the inventors process. They arrest him and discover he is the bank robber so all ends well.
