Stop! Luke! Listen! is a 1917 short comedy film featuring Harold Lloyd.

Thieves escape by car but it breaks down. Lloyd and Pollard help them start up again but the thieves steal the tandem bicycle, leaving the car in the hands of the heros.
Harold Lloyd starred in the successful Lonesome Luke series. However, he soon grew tired of the obvious Charlie Chaplin imitation. In an attempt to reinvent himself, Lloyd donned a pair of horn-rimmed glasses, and thus, a new comedy legend was born. Setting himself against Chaplin, Lloyd's "glasses character" was an everyman, a resourceful go-getter who embodied the ambitious, success-seeking attitude of 1920s America.
Our hero is a police officer who gets involved in a crap game, flirting with a nurse and other amusements.
