Plot

The movies depicts a stationary camera which looks on as two dapper gents play a game of chess. One drinks and smokes, and when he looks away, his opponent moves two pieces. A comedic fight ensues, first with the squirting of a soda siphon, then with each punching the other. The opponents wrestle each other to the floor and continue the fight out of the camera's view, hidden by the table. The waiter then arrives to haul them out of the hotel.[3]
