Morgan, who is secretly Holmes's rival, at the next club dinner gets his friend under the influence of wine, and then has him receive an urgent message to go at once to Louise's home. When she sees Holmes intoxicated, Louise breaks the engagement. Morgan presses his suit. With her thoughts divided between the two young men, Louise is visited by a dream in which is shown to her a life of misery with Morgan. In her dream she sees him turn out to be a worse drunkard than Holmes, and selfish and brutal in addition. In trying to defend herself from him she kills him with a pair of shears. Holmes, a poor derelict, poking about in the refuse barrels below, hears her scream. He rushes to her rescue, taking upon himself her guilt. Louise awakes. She sends for Holmes and they are reconciled. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
