What happens

The Old Wallop is a 1927 Our Gang short silent comedy film, the 65th in the series, directed by Robert F. McGowan. It had been considered a lost film, as it was destroyed in the 1965 MGM vault fire, but a nearly complete print was discovered in Munich in the 1970s. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
