Now He Asks!
An elderly man is hanging a picture on the wall. He reaches the height he wants by placing a rickety chair on a table, climbs up with the picture, and instantly finds himself dangling from a hanging rope, with the table and chair crashed to the floor. This, presumably, is when he utters the title. His wife rushes through the house to the kitchen, grabs the cook's step ladder, and races back to her husband, spreading destruction wherever she goes.
Vitagraph never claimed to be much in the way of slapstick until they hired Larry Semon almost a decade after this. In fact, they claimed to despise it. Yet here it is.
