In fact, Ford has seen Marie in the hall and is so enamored that one day when Fritz has gone to work he throws a bouquet over the transom to Marie. But when he tries to crawl through a window he slips and hangs on the edge of the coping until Fritz returns, gets a net and catches him as he falls. The innocent husband, not suspecting the true state of affairs, invites Ford to his apartment to have a drink. When the new acquaintance tries to pass a note under the table to Marie the eyes of Fritz are opened as he reads. Such an uproar follows that all hands are thrown out. To escape publicity Fritz and Marie seek an isolated mountain resort. Unfortunately Ford occupies a cabin in the same resort. He goes rabbit hunting, sees what he thinks is real game and shoots. His target is a rabbit skin cap worn by Fritz, who feigns death. Ford now places himself under the care of a quack who has a marvelous cure for cripples. He turns loose a hungry bear to pursue his patients through the mountains. The bruin chases Ford, who is clad in a bathing suit, and forces him to take refuge in the cabin where Fritz and Marie are staying. When husband returns the shooting begins. Bloodshed is prevented by the timely arrival of the quack, whose explanation settles everything. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
