Plot.

Penrod and his gang do not want to allow the "good" neighborhood, Georgie Bassett, to enter their club, but Penrod's father pushes him to let the child in, because Georgie's parents are wealthy and prominent members of the city. Finally, the boys accept that Georgie joins, but first they demand that he undergo a "initiation", and they are determined to turn it into one that Georgie will not soon forget. (filmaffinit)
