Jack Harrington, who has the reputation of a heart-breaker, tries his best to make an impression and lays a wager with a number of club men that he will get the heart and determine the identity of "the girl in black." Happily for the frustrating of his scheme, a busy little boy tells the veiled lady, so that she is armed for the adventure. When daring Jack invites her to use his automobile going home, she declines, but when the midnight hour sounds, she slips out to her own waiting auto and he follows in his own machine. The machine stops at her house and she and an elderly escort enter. Jack has a feeling that the man may be her father, but he feels that he must bring hack the heart or earn the everlasting ridicule of all his friends. The girls in the house are soon alive to the fact that the automobile dropped a man in the grounds. Bessie tells them the story of the young man, the bet, and the desire for the heart that adorns her breast. Instead of becoming frightened at the idea of a man in the garden below, she tells them that she has no fear of a burglar and will handle the guest herself. When Jack sees the light extinguished in the room, he climbs a heavy trellis supporting a vine that reaches directly to her window. He enters and tiptoes about the shadowy room in search of the ornament. He sees the heart, slips it in his pocket, together with her picture. Just then a sound from the adjoining room frightens him, and he slips into a dressing cabinet. A real burglar comes through the window, wearing a mask. The beauty, who is awake, covers him with a revolver, and in a low voice orders him to obey her directions or she will shoot. She tells him to put on a dressing gown, and explains that it is a joke on somebody. Jack, thinking the coast is clear, comes out, and the girl switches on the light. She tells him that she will call for her husband. Panic stricken, he makes a dash for the window and falls out headlong. Just then the real burglar emerges from concealment. Jack has been captured by two policemen and brought back, and is denounced by the real burglar as the culprit. The police search him and he is made to restore the heart and the picture. But Jack finally pleads with the girl and obtains her forgiveness. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
