He has, however, been very successful in posing as a hero, and deceives all but his wife, who laughs at him when he tells her that he has been awarded a medal for bravery. Eventually he brings this token home in triumph, and she throws it on her red-hot stove and dares him to demonstrate his fireproof bravery in taking it off. He does this with a pair of pincers; but the ribbon is burned away, and he is humiliated. Subsequently he becomes the true hero of a fire in a tenement and saves a number of lives. Having saved four lives, he finally drops from the roof of the flaming building and is caught in the safety net held by the firemen in the street below. He is rushed off to the hospital, and his wife is informed of the perilous condition of her intrepid husband. She then realizes that he is a braver man than she dreamed of.
