What happens

Mabel's Married Life is a 1914 American comedy silent short film made by Keystone Studios starring and co-written by Charlie Chaplin and Mabel Normand, and directed by Chaplin. As was often the case during his first year in film, Chaplin's character is soon staggering drunk. The film was followed in 1915 by Mabel and Fatty's Married Life as a follow-up (but not quite a "sequel"). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
