Plot
Upon absconding from incarceration with only a week left to serve, Laurel and Hardy embark on a journey to Scotland clandestinely aboard a cattle boat. Stan, assuming the alias "Stanley McLaurel," harbors the belief that he is the rightful heir to his grandfather's substantial fortune. However, his inheritance merely comprises a set of bagpipes and a snuff container, the latter of which propels Hardy off an antiquated bridge while attempting to demonstrate its usage.

In their boarding house, Laurel exchanges their overcoats for a sizable fish intended for dinner. However, calamity ensues as the fish rapidly diminishes in size, Hardy's attire is singed beyond repair, and their endeavor to conceal the incriminating stove results in eviction and confiscation of their belongings for unpaid rent. Following an advertisement for a tailor's services, a misdirected floor choice leads them to unwittingly enlist in a Scottish regiment of the British Army, subsequently transporting them to India.

Their escapades in India are marked by recurrent clashes with the stern Sergeant Major and their involvement in aiding their comrade Alan in reuniting with his beloved Lorna McLaurel, Stanl's cousin. The local terrorist threat posed by Khan Mir Jutra prompts a perilous decoy mission to the palace, with Colonel MacGregor orchestrating a coordinated assault from an alternative direction. Inadvertently coerced into the mission, Laurel and Hardy remain oblivious to the impending danger until handed pistols and instructed to enact suicide.

However, Hardy's botched attempt results in the collapse of a colossal chandelier, followed by a chaotic pursuit culminating in a courtyard of beehives. This unforeseen encounter incites pandemonium among the terrorists and their own regiment, ultimately thwarting Khan Mir Jutra's nefarious intentions.
