A mother and her three young children arrive at a train station. A gust of wind has blown off the mother's hat and she leaves her children for a few minutes to go find it - with strict instructions to the kids to "stay right here". While she's gone, the family's luggage is moved and, accidentally, so are the kids. When they become afraid, a friendly police officer tries to help them find their mother. The lighthearted search is a delight as the officer takes them to various businesses asking if this woman and that are their mother. Finally, they are returned to the station just in time to be reunited with their worried mother. A reassuring tale of losing and, ultimately, finding one's mother.
