In 1922, a young boy named Sonny works in an underground coal mine with a group of miners. He looks after the little canary the men use to detect methane, an invisible, deadly gas.

Hoping to escape the gloomy underground, the boy teaches his bird to play dead. The joke panics the miners, who flee to the surface where Sonny and the canary can enjoy a moment in the sunlight.

When the naïve boy is unaware of the danger of this game, tragedy ensues.
