The YHA logo appears. Title Card ‘--- keep to the right side’. A dog runs out of the front door to a house and out of the garden gate. It runs up a rocky hill into a countryside/mountainous area. Rocky landscape is shown. A postman in a uniform walks down the street. The door is shown laid in some grass. Some sheep are shown running across the mountainous area. The dog follows. A YHA sign is shown on a post outside of a building. The postman approaches the front door where he hands a letter to a man in the entrance. They both look up to the sky. The dog continues to chase the sheep. At the youth hostel, a group of people are sitting at a table with food. One person is seen eating, and another person is shown writing on some paper. Three men walk out of the front door of the hostel and are waved at by the people outside the door. Two of them head around to the back of the hostel where the bicycles are kept. Two men are shown folding bedding on a bunk bed. The two men who went to the back of the hostel are shown riding away on bicycles, waving to those standing outside as they leave. The two men who were folding the bedding also emerge from the front door. Intertitle - ‘I must go to the Village to the Post.’ The group of people outside the front door continue chatting. Intertitle - ‘We’ll wait for our walk till you get back.’ One of the men gets on a bicycle, with a letter in his hand. Intertitle - ‘Mind you keep to the right side.’ The man cycles away and down a road. Intertitle - ‘---keep to the right side’. The man continues cycling down the road on the right-hand side. The exterior of the house is shown. A man and a woman are shown sitting down and chatting inside a room. The man looks flustered. Intertitle - ‘That there Youth ‘ostel can’t be no good. Foreigners and all sorts stayin’ there.’ The postman is shown standing with a police officer in uniform (the man previously seen sitting inside with the woman). He shows the officer some letters/postcards. One is singled out, which reads ‘Mr Jean Foughuet’ on the address. The correspondence is written in French. The police man then starts to look puzzled, and then flustered. The police officer, in plain clothes, and the woman (presumably his spouse) continue chatting in a room. The man looks even more flustered. Intertitle - ‘ikers all over the place, everywhere, dunno what the Country’s comin’ to, that I don’t.’ The man slams his fist on the table. The woman tries to calm him down. Intertitle - ‘What I sez is it’s bound to lead to no good. You should ‘ave seen ‘ow they were a carryin=on last night!’ The police officer is shown looking through a window (in uniform) into the youth hostel. Inside, a group of people are laughing and joking. Intertitle - ‘Let us have three cheers for the Y.H.A.’ The group cheer three times. The police officer continues to look through the window. The police officer, in plain clothes, imitates the cheering to the woman he is sitting with. Intertitle - ‘I ain’t satisfied and I’m goin’ up there now to ask a few questions.’ He grabs his police officer coat. Intertitle - ‘Them Foreigners are a danger on the roads. “Rover” was nearly killed by one yesterday.’ The police officer is shown in uniform stood outside the youth hostel. Intertitle - ‘Come ‘ere, Rover, and stop nosin’ about’. The man on the bike is shown approaching the officer and swerves to avoid Rover the dog, who runs out in front of him. The man falls off the bike. Intertitle - ‘Ah, pardon, je suis désolé, est=ce que je l’ai blessé, le chien? Mais je cherchais l’Auberge de la Jeunesse. Elle est par ici?’ The man is shown standing next to the bike talking to the police officer. The police officer scratches his head. The man next to the bike points in the direction of the YHA building. Intertitle - ‘Tiens, voila l’enseigne, je ne l’avais pas vue, merci bien, merci mille fois…’ The man bows to the police officer, gets on his bike and rides away. The officer watches after him and nods. Back in his house, the police officer is getting his uniform on, with help from the woman. She polishes his hat and gives it to him. He aggressively points towards the door. The police officer steps outside his house. Intertitle - ‘Drat the dog! Where is ‘e?’ The police officer looks over the garden fence. The officer is shown on the road looking into the distance. The French cyclist crashes into the police officer and falls off his bike. The police officer also falls over. The police officer drags the man up off the floor, and escorts him back to the youth hostel building. The police officer is met with the other members of the group at the youth hostel outside and begins to take notes in a small notebook. Intertitle - ‘---and what might you be wantin’? The police officer puts a hand on the shoulder of the French cyclist. Intertitle - ‘Friend of yours is ‘e? Well, ‘e’s in trouble!’ The police officer carries on having a rant. Intertitle - ‘I charge ‘im with ridin’ a wheeled ve-hic-le, to wit a bicycle, to the public danger’. The police officer points to his notebook. Intertitle - ‘With not bein’ able to satisfactorily account for ‘is movements’. The police officer continues reading out some notes in his notebook. Intertitle - ‘--and for endeavourin’ to undermine the Law of the Country!’ A man in a suit steps out of the youth hostel. The French cyclist tries to explain something to him, and then the man in the suit starts talking to the police officer. Another man runs up to the police officer and points into the distance. Intertitle - ‘There’s a dog on the Mountain, seems to be injured, we couldn’t reach him.’ The police officer looks inquisitive. Intertitle - ‘What sort of dog?’ The man shows a rough height. The dog is shown on the mountain. The police officer looks concerned. Intertitle - ‘That’s my dog.’ The group outside the youth hostel look around at each other. Intertitle - ‘Get the ropes and climbing tackle. We’ll send out a Rescue Party.’ The group go into the youth hostel and then exit again with lots of climbing gear. They head towards the mountain. The French cyclist is talking to a woman by the door. Intertitle - ‘I now comprehend. I will rescue the dog.’ The woman, the police officer and the French cyclist all catch up to the group. The group prepare the climbing gear as they get further into the mountains. Mountain landscape is shown. Several of the group, including the French cyclist, are shown with rope attached to them, and begin climbing the mountain. The dog is shown patiently waiting. The group continue climbing up the mountain. The French cyclist finds the dog at the top and binds up the dog’s injured leg. He then wraps the dog in some cloth and attaches some rope, so that he can then lower the dog down the mountain. The police officer is waiting for the dog at the bottom; he strokes the dog and looks happy as the pair are reunited. The police officer continues stroking the dog (the rope now undone, and the cloth removed), whilst the French cyclist wraps the dogs injured leg in a bandage. Back at the youth hostel, the police officer shakes the hand of the man in the suit, and then shakes the hand of the French cyclist, who kisses both cheeks of the police officer. The police officer smiles and laughs. The whole group head inside the youth hostel and have a meal together at a long table. The police officer is handed a bottle of dandelion and burdock. He smiles and laughs. The dog is also shown sat at the table. The police officer’s wife is sat next to him; she jokingly puts on his hat. The police officer stands up with his glass, to make a toast. Intertitle - ‘ere’s to all of you, your very Good ‘ealth.’ He gestures around the room. Intertitle - ‘ere’s to our visitors from Abroad. May they always find a big welcome among friends in England.’ He raises his glass, and the group all stand up and raise their glasses. They all drink.
