This strong allegorical drama is founded upon The Devil, and The Servant in the House. The man neglects his home and wife and spends his time at the club and is here induced to attend a matinee of the "Devil," in company with two other men. Later, two chorus girls join the party and they all proceed to a nearby palm garden to enjoy the music and the liquid trimmings. While here the man receives a note from Edna, his favorite amorita, requesting that he attend, with her, that evening a performance of "The Servant in the House." He excuses himself from the party and departs for home to dress for the evening. His wife remonstrates with him for leaving her alone, but he assures her he is only going to the club and pays little heed to her warning note which she leaves for him on the table. The note reads, "If you persist in drinking and going out at night do not blame your wife if she does likewise." He joins Edna and they witness "The Servant in the House." It is late when he returns home and sinking into an easy chair is soon in dreamland. While in this subconscious state the Devil appears and tells him that his wife is playing false with him. The man is nigh crazed, and quickly follows the Devil, who shows him his wife first in the arms of another man, and later at the French ball in the arms of still another. The Devil places a revolver into the man's hand and in his rage the man kills the woman he had called wife. He then rushes home. Believing himself now awake, but remembering his dream, he now hastens to his wife's room, only to find it empty. He remembers her note, and, filled with remorse, is about to place the revolver to his own temple, when "The Servant in the House" appears and leads him to a screen behind which his wife is sleeping quietly. He now really awakens and, as he prostrates himself before her praying for forgiveness, he thanks the God he serves for revealing in a dream the folly of his evil ways.
