HOT WATER  (1924):

Balking at the fact his best friend is about to get married, a young man literally runs into a woman will become his wife on his way to that friend's wedding. Although he loves his wife, the husband doesn't much like having to deal with his in-laws: his controlling and judgmental mother-in-law, Winnifred Ward Stokes; his shiftless and lazy older brother-in-law, Charley Stokes; and his mischievous adolescent brother-in-law, Bobby Stokes. He's also a bit harried by his wife's requests; one such incident has him carrying a large load of groceries, including a live turkey, home on the streetcar, much to his and the other passengers' chagrin. However, his streetcar days may be behind him as he has just purchased a new automobile for their household, a Butterfly Six. The inaugural drive in the car is intruded upon by his in-laws, which leads to an adventure-filled drive on the streets and other less driven places of their town.
