Plot Summary:Colonel Otto's one fear is the dread of germs and microbes. He supplies himself with disinfectant which he uses constantly when eating, drinking, using the phone, handling money, etc. His son, Harold, is a sport and is in the bad graces of his father. On the day in question Harold returns from a café where he has spent his last dollar. To replenish his purse he meets the colonel and asks for more money, but is refused. Picking up the newspaper he finds an article about germs which a crank has been sending people to scare them in order to get money. Harold gets an idea and proceeds to put his plan into execution by sending his father a germ letter, putting insect powder in the letter, which when opened flies over the person reading it. His father, who is very much afraid of germs, receives the letter on his birthday. His desk is filled with presents. One present is from an old comrade who sends him a German police dog. This the colonel orders the servant to put in the cellar. He then opens the letter. The powder flies over his clothing. He reads the following: \"On opening this letter you have liberated about 2,000,000 healthy germs. You are without doubt inoculated by now. No doctor can save you. Send $5,000 to the old cave rock and I will send you my serum, which is the only thing that will cure you. Fail to heed this warning and you will be dead within six hours.\" Otto is undecided what to do. Finally he picks up the phone and calls up the police station. As he is phoning two robbers relieve him of all his gifts, taking the fatal letter with them. They carry the booty to their den, but when they open the letter they read it and are scared. They decide to return the stolen goods, give him back the letter, and make him send enough money to buy serum for them also. Otto takes the money to the old cave place and returns to the house. When he is gone his son, Harold, and a friend take the money and proceed to the café for a good time. Otto and the two robbers in the meantime are waiting for the serum. The blackmailers never arrive. The robbers, not getting worse, decide it was a trick, steal the presents again and go back to their den, where they divide it. Otto hears the dog barking in the cellar, goes down, lets the dog smell the letter and the dog starts out, followed by Otto. The dog leads him to the café where he finds his son having a good time spending his money. He takes back the money. Then the dog leads him to the robbers' den, and Otto has them arrested.
