Every time Beery gets drunk, gambles away the racehorse which he has presented to his son, or is taken to jail for disturbing the peace, there is a shot of little Cooper sticking out his underlip and wrinkling his eyes. In jail, Beery decides to send his son to live in respectable surroundings with his mother. Cooper is unwilling to go.
