Heiress Marguerite Snow and young J. Morris Foster are in love. Her guardian, Joe Sparks, seems to approve. However he is worried that if she marries him, there will be an accounting and he has been speculating with her money (and, presumably, losing money; no one ever objects to speculations that turn out well) So he slips young Foster a Mickey Finn in a glass of wine. When Foster passes out, Miss Snow finds him apparently dead drunk. Foster's father, Justus D. Barnes throws him out of the house. Will their best friend -- an uncredited bull terrier -- be able to bring them together?
It's a very pleasant little two-reel drama from the Thanhouser Company. It was written by H.F. Maltby, here taking his first steps as a screenwriter. He would become a prolific one, with more than 50 writing credits on the screen, several plays, and appearances in more than sixty movies you can spot him as an advisor in 1945's CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA. He died in 1963, aged 82.
