Mike and Mary quarrel, and Mike is ejected from the house. The next day. Mike in the capacity of a window washer, falls from a second story window and an ambulance is hurriedly summoned. The ambulance is on its way to the hospital when Mary, at her work in the steam laundry, is scalded, and the ambulance containing Mike is pressed into service to also carry Mary to the hospital. Imagine the surprise of the two lovers when they return to consciousness, and find themselves stretched out side by side. Here, they finally make up their quarrel and when the ambulance doctor and his assistant open the door, they are surprised to find the two lovers in each other's arms. "No hospital for us," they both exclaim, as they step out of the ambulance. "We want the marriage license bureau."

A comedy-farce with a brand-new idea and when this fresh situation begins to come out on the screen, the spectators see the drift at once and begin to chuckle. As the situation develops, they laugh heartily as every step of the picture's progress adds something new. The first scene was too long. We got all that it gave us in a moment and the rest was not needed. We saw two, whom we supposed to be lovers. The next scene confirmed this and showed the two quarreling. Next day they both went to work. Both were injured, he washing windows, she in her laundry. Both are, by chance, placed side by side in the same ambulance. As shown it is very funny indeed. It is a comedy that can be depended upon. An exhibitor who needs a comedy on his bill may feel assured that this will serve very well. It is well photographed and well acted. - The Moving Picture World, January 20, 1912
