In this Biograph subject, the circumstances were apparently very compromising. Mr. and Mrs. Jones are about to start on a hurried trip. Mrs. Jones writes a note to her friend and neighbor, Mrs. Young, asking her to feed the bird every day during her absence. Mr. Jones writes to his friend, Mr. Hall, bidding him to enjoy the use of his library during the while. Mrs. Young is possessed of a jealous dispositioned hubby, while Mr. Hall's wife is similarly sensitive. Mrs. Young and Mr. Hall go to Jones' domicile on separate missions, each unknown to the other. Mr. Hall is in the library, while Mrs. Young is in the sitting room, when Hall knocks over a piece of bric-a-brac, frightening the wits out of Mrs. Young, who starts in alarm. Each reckon the other a hidden burglar, until they meet. At this point Mr. Young and Mrs. Hall appear simultaneously on the doorstep of the Jones' house. Aha. A deep-dyed plot. Things are threateningly tragic until the Joneses, whose auto becomes disabled, return. Explanations corroborating the couple's protestations bring peace.
