Plot

edit

Hans and Fritz are two street musicians, who play the flute and bass, respectively. They struggle to get along with their fellow boarders, which causes them to be kicked from boarding house to boarding house. They finally find a house that will take them, where they are assailed by rodents and insects, with Fritz being carried away by an enormous bed-bug. Hans shoots the bed-bug to release Fritz, and they are chased from the boarding house. Escaping towards the lake, the mob forces them into the water, where Fritz uses his bass as a flotation device in the stormy waters, until it is safe for them to come ashore.[1]
