Ernest Bowers suffers an attack of catalepsy while crossing the street, lapsing into a coma that resembles death. Believing he was killed by a passing car, his body is sent to the city morgue.

The couple who purchase the jacket finds the note and begins a race to save Ernest from a premature embalming.
