A coach is coming, and moves out of the frame at one side of the field of view. Soon after, an approaching car veers off course and moves straight to the viewer (the camera). As it approaches, the occupants wave frantically, hoping to stave off the impending collision. At the moment the car fills the entire frame the film cuts to title cards that bear the text "Oh, mother will be pleased".

Une rue calme à l’arrière d’une rangée de maisons. Au fond, une automobile s’engage dans la rue et s’approche de la caméra selon la diagonale du champ. Il s’agit d’un phaéton (véhicule découvert) avec un conducteur et trois dames portant chapeau et crinoline. Elles sont joyeuses et agitent leur écharpe. Arrivé à notre hauteur, l’engin explose (par le trucage de l’arrêt de caméra et ne restent plus qu’une épaisse fumée et quelques débris mécaniques. Un bobby (policier en uniforme) entre dans le champ de la caméra et s’approche pour inspecter le lieu de l’explosion. Il ouvre une lunette d’approche et scrute le ciel au-dessus de sa tête. Soudain, il s’enfuit. Tout ce qui reste des passagères tombe sur la chaussée : robes et membres épars.

On a quiet suburban road a motor car appears from around a corner in the distance. Two male pedestrians cross the road in front of the vehicle. As the car approaches it is seen to contain a male driver and three high-spirited female passengers waving handkerchiefs towards the camera. The car reaches the foreground and explodes without warning, leaving a smouldering pile of twisted wreckage. A policeman (played by Hepworth himself) happens to be passing, takes out a telescope and looks up to the sky. After a lapse of several seconds he has to dodge out of the way as torsos and severed limbs (but no heads) start to rain down around him. Unperturbed, the helpful policeman takes out his notebook and begins the task of reassembling the assorted body parts, still neatly clothed, into identifiable human beings, conscientiously making notes as he goes.
