Plot


Harold Lloyd plays an incorrigible skirt-chaser who follows a pretty girl from a park to her place of employment as a cashier in a restaurant. He orders a huge meal and then proceeds to get the waiter fired so he can take his place. In a short time Lloyd creates mayhem that annoys both the restaurant's customers and its kitchen staff. Lloyd eventually learns that the cashier is married to the proprietor of the restaurant. He then quickly leaves, sees another pretty girl, and follows her down the street.

Reception


Like many American films of the time, The Flirt was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors cut the scene of the waiter wiping a tray and his feet on the cook's posterior.[2]
