He has Floppy jump in front of the car, gets a blonde into the back seat while Lawyer Calhoun steps out to investigate, threatens a scandal unless Lawyer Calhoun helps him free Mrs. Stevens. Later he congratulates Floppy on his performance of holding the bumper with one hand while smearing his face with imitation blood...
