Charlie befriends a beautiful girl on board a passenger ship to America. Once ashore they become involved in Charlie's usual escapades. In New York, Charlie spends his last coin on a meal for the young woman he has befriended aboard ship. The coin turns out to be counterfeit resulting in an episode that has hilarious consequences for all concerned. This somewhat autobiographical film was censored in later versions, the most commonly deleted scene is the sequence where the immigrants in third class are herded like cattle in steerage, as they pass the Statue of Liberty. Chaplin's experiences as a young man living in London's slums gave him a vision of the world of the underpriveleged that he would later romanticize and transform into comedy in the many films featuring his alter ego "The Little Tramp".
