Henry ("Sonny" Howard) does not want to do chores. It is a beautiful Saturday in September and he wants his 'Saturday Off.' He would rather go fishing or join his friends in a game, "An' there's a Bill Hart picture at the Bi-joe Theatre!" according to an intertitle. His mother (Margaret Mann), adamant that he continue his chores, heads for the market leaving Henry in charge of the rent money. At the same time a lady (Nell Shipman) drives out of her yard in a touring car, leaving her dog tied up. Meanwhile a bear escapes from the zoo. Henry decides to go on strike and, leaving his mother a note outlining his terms re chores and remuneration for same, climbs out of the kitchen window, this unusual method of exit a part of his newly adopted outlaw persona, and heads off for new pastures. At the same time the dog slips his collar and heads for freedom. Henry arrives in time to best three young bullies and remove a can tied to the luckless dog's tail and boy and dog are quickly pals. Now two burglars enter Henry's house, stealing the mother's jewelry. The bear also enters the house and proceeds to eat the mother's baking. The bear makes sufficient noise to cause the burglars to flee. The mother returns from the market and as she enters by the door the bear makes a post-prandial escape through the kitchen window unseen by the mother. On the road dog and boy are startled by the appearance of the bear. A terrified Henry climbs a tree but the bear chases him up the tree and climbs over him. Back on terra firma the trio quickly become fast friends though Henry, in true human fashion, ropes the two animals together.~ Night: Henry comes on the two burglars. They have a pipe-bomb, to be used in an attempt on the life of a judge; he also recognizes jewelry in their possession as his mother's. Discovered by the villains, Henry is soon roped himself but a remarkably dexterous bear soon has him untied, soon enough for him to get to the judge's residence in time to snatch the bomb off the doorstep, hurl it away to explode harmlessly, and save the judge's life.~ Sunday morning: Henry returns home to find his sanctimonious aunt, and Willie, his goodie-goodie cousin, on hand to accuse him of the theft of both the rent money and his mother's jewelry. A neighbour woman who has seen Henry leave by the window and smiled indulgently at the time now regards this unconventional exit as evidence that he was "up to no good." By an unfortunate coincidence Henry has on him the exact amount of the rent, a ten and a twenty. His explanations, shown in flashback, that he got these two notes from the lady in the car when he returned her dog and from a grateful zoo keeper when he returned the bear, are met with disbelief. To make matters worse he has on his person the jewelry, recovered from the burglars. Now even his mother thinks him a thief. And Henry realizes that she never even found the note he left her while the aunt looks jubilant. But now the judge arrives to sing the boy's praises and reward him for his brave deed while Henry, inside the house, discovers that the rent money is still there. Now his aunt and cousin hang their heads in shame and Henry exclaims that he "won't never strike no more!" <29mn 1s>
