The Bath Dub (1921, silent)

Description: "The manager of a new hotel is in trouble--it's opening day and his staff has quit, including the plumbers who have yet to install any bathtubs in the rooms. As angry guests keep demanding rooms with a tub, the manager's janitor tells him of someone he knows who has invented the ""automatic bathtub""--just what the manager thinks he needs to keep his guests happy. However, the inventor hasn't quite gotten all the ""bugs"" out of his invention yet. Complications ensue."(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0245750/plotsummary/?ref_=tt_ov_pl. Accessed on: 2023-04-10)
