A bomb which has been placed at the top of the ladder is discovered by the girl and thrown into the assembled throng, her one-piece bathing suit is snatched from her back by her sweetheart, who seeks to rescue her in an airplane, and she rushes from the tank to his arms, an aerial elopement providing the ending.
