Father at the club, has created a reputation as a genuine Ananias, because he continues to tell with added exaggerations a wonderful story of his fearless fight with several bears, which, however, exist only in his imagination. Father comes home from the club appearing slightly intoxicated. The bear cub has escaped from his collar, and being hungry, approaches father in the dark. Father runs with the bear cub in pursuit. From one room to another, they rush, and each time the imagination of father causes the bear to grow in size exactly as the bears did in his imaginary story, which he told at the club. In the picture, various sizes of bears are substituted; in fact, a whole band of them, so that father's fears are not wholly groundless. After many mishaps, during which father slides down a chute with the bear after him, he jumps through a panel door into the room of an old maid, with the bear in full chase until he scrambles through a window out on the fire escape. Then the police are called, and father collapses when he sees the real size of the bear. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
