An "Advice to the Lovelorn" column in a newspaper gives her an idea. She enlists the assistance of an old friend, Bob Frazer, whose role is to flirt with her violently whenever Grant is near. Bob's flirtation is so realistic that she is obliged to remind him that it is only a game of make believe. Grant is at a complete loss to understand his wife's actions. Later he is aroused to masterly action by the same "Advice to the Lovelorn" column, and decides to engage an attractive secretary, upon whom he showers attentions. His wife deplores the turn of affairs. Meantime, Bob and Ethel fall in love, and an exchange of confidence results in a plan to bring the estranged husband and wife together. Through strategy, husband and wife are locked together in a room, and told they will not be permitted their freedom until they make up. Looking out of a window they see the lovemaking of the other two, and with a kiss, their differences are forgotten. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
