She tells Sweedie, the cook, of her failure, so Sweedie decides to try her luck at making him "come across." She goes to his office, where she is refused admittance. She is finally allowed to enter after almost smashing in the door, but Mr. Tightwad absolutely refuses to give her money. She then rolls up her sleeves and prepares to make him produce. He becomes frightened and gives her the amount she demands. Later Sweedie and Mrs. Goodheart, loaded down with provisions, go to the home of a poverty stricken family. Shortly after they arrive, in comes Mr. Tightwad with a policeman. Sweedie gives him one look and he shrinks back, again offering her more money. Mrs. Goodheart and the family are overjoyed, while Sweedie marvels at her own success. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
