An intoxicated man, fully dressed, sits in a bathtub with the shower raining water down upon him. In his drunken state he has mistaken the bathtub for a motorboat. A seltzer bottle and an overturned bottle of liquor are on the floor at the end of the bathtub. Visible through an open door is a beach with dock and a sailboat offshore. Caption: “Thasser way with these darn motor-boats! Go back on yer just the worsh time! Like as not, be stuck in the rain here all day!”
