Flattop escapes from the chimney with help from an old gentleman who lives next door. Covered with soot and honey, he forces a street huckster to to clean his coat with the "special fluid" the huckster is selling. In return he sets the huckster ablaze. Taking refuge in a rooming house, he encounters Vitamin Flintheart and forces the actor to disguise him as an old man. As payment, Flattop beats the old actor and leaves him for dead. Tracy and Patton find Flintheart, who volunteers to help as much as he possibly can.
