Shows two lovers in a hammock. Two bad boys appear. One of them climbs into a tree and scrambles out on an overhanging branch, directly over the happy pair. Just as the love-making reaches a climax, the branch breaks. The boy falls into the hammock, the hammock breaks, and the boy and the lovers are mixed up on the ground. Exceedingly ludicrous.
