Mr. and Mrs. Gussle are taking a day outing together at a park. Henpecked Mr. Gussle just wants to go somewhere quiet and have a drink, but Mrs. Gussle will have none of that. Instead they get into one misadventure after another at the park, including with a a newspaper boy, with a couple in a motor car, and with a monkey at the zoo. But it's their encounter with a young picnicking couple that could cause the most problem, as Mr. Gussle is attracted to the woman and would rather spend the day with her than with his wife.
