It has also been often used as a classic example of two ultimate comic ironies — a supposed 'hostage' actually liking his abductors and enjoying being captured, and his captors getting their just deserts by having the tables turned on them, and being compelled to pay to be rid of him.

Two small-time criminals, Bill and Sam, kidnap Johnny, the year-old red-haired son of an important citizen named Ebenezer Dorset, and hold him for ransom. But the moment they arrive at their hideout with the boy, the plan begins to unravel. Calling himself 'Red Chief', the boy proceeds to drive his captors to distraction with his unrelenting chatter, malicious pranks, and demands that they play wearying games with him.

The criminals write a ransom letter to the boy's father, lowering the ransom from two thousand dollars to fifteen hundred at Bill's suggestion. The father, who knows his son well and realizes how intolerable he will be to his captors and how desirous they will soon be to rid themselves of the delinquent child, rejects their demand and offers to take the boy off their hands if they pay him. The men hand over the money and the howling boy — who had actually been happier being away from his stricter father and thus does not want to be 'rescued' from his more-lenient captors — and flee after the father threatens to turn his son loose on them.

Henry proves to be the master of the unexpected. Bill and Sam are notorious small-time criminals who get more than they bargain for when they attempt to kidnap a little rich boy who calls himself Red Chief.
