He is found by accident (after firing on a plane he sees approaching) and brought home, feted as a hero. Unfortunately, Ollie's wife does not take to Stan, being disgusted with the bums he brings home. Stan doesn't help matters when, among other things, he wrecks Ollie's car in the garage. Quotes include: A boy is playing with his ball, he kicks it just as the couple (L&H) are walking up the stairs, it obviously hits Ollie in the face and Ollie kicks it down the stairs which are a few floors steep. The Boy calls his father who tells Ollie to go and get it. This ends up with Stan hitting the father and petrifying him.
