It's not until the last minute that we find out that this misadventure in the frozen north is but a nightmare. How else could you explain Keaton emerging from a subway station in the frozen North? Also, this conveniently absolves Keaton's character from being a truly evil man.........Incidentally, the large poster that Keaton converts into his partner in crime is an advertisement for Bull's Eye ammunition, not a wanted poster, as sometimes claimed. It would have to be made of cardboard, not paper, to stand up outside the saloon window. As expected, his poster partner only fooled them so long, as it wasn't animated. He gave back the money, and was booted out the window........Keaton would soon become a murderer, as he goes to his cabin and finds his wife kissing a man, the faces turned away from him. Unusually, Keaton's face shows real anger. He shoots the pair dead, then discovers that it wasn't his wife, as he was in the wrong house! He then went home. His wife wanted to kiss him, but he rebuffed her, and she was very sad. Then, he sees a comely lass out the window. He puts on his finest clothes, and calls on her. She's alone, but her husband soon returns, and we have a confrontation. Keaton actually snarls at him, before the husband and wife leave on a sleigh. They will meet again at the end, when the spouses are again inside their cabin. Keaton sneaks in, but before he has a chance to initiate a confrontation, a woman(presumably, his wife) shoots him from the window. It appears to be a mortal wound, but Keaton musters enough energy to get out his gun, and is about to shoot the husband, when he wakes up.........Keaton also has some adventures traveling around on various conveyances, including a deluxe dog sled that has a windshield and a radiator in the front. The only trouble is it's too heavy for the sorry-looking dogs to pull......... When a man comes along on a ski version of a Harley, Keaton takes the propeller off and turns it around, making the skimobile go backwards into a lake. Yes, he's a bad man!....... Keaton also has some adventures ice fishing with his buddy Joe Roberts.
