Mulhall's Great Catch (1926)

Joe Mulhall, a city fireman, and Otto Nelson, pride of the police force, vie for the hand of Nora McCarron. Joe and Rizzoli ring in a fire alarm in the industrial district, and Joe makes a daring rescue of two women, delivering them to Rizzoli. Officer Nelson, attracted to the scene, falls onto Joe from the roof, knocks him out, and makes a rescue; the newspapers give Nelson all the credit, and his stock rises with Nora. Joe asks Nora to the Fire and Police Ball, but he is delayed and she goes with Nelson; furthermore he disgraces himself by spilling refreshments on the mayor and the commissioner. That night Nora feels sorry for him and signals him from her window. In her father's office she is captured by two burglars; Nelson investigates and is knocked unconscious. Joe arrives, overcomes the burglars as they dynamite the safe, and wins the favor of Nora.
