Timothy goes forward again determined to succeed. At the studio through a ruse he manages to elude the Cerberus at the gate and enters. He watches a set story of the underworld, and etc., and sees a director taking a stupid extra man through a part. He has a brilliant idea; he goes and uses his last dollar to bribe a man. Timothy returns to the scene where the director sits discouraged. Timothy wanders on, and the man he has bribed comes up and says, "Mr. Dobbs, I haven't had the pleasure of your marvelous performance as a crook in that underworld play." Timothy smiles indifferently, but the director hears, the plan works and Timothy is engaged to play the stupid actor's part. Looking for a location they go to the worst section of the town, where police work in pairs, and proceed to take scenes. It is by accident that Timothy is wearing the makeup that resembles the Eel, notorious safe-breaker and murderer, and is recognized by a crook who spreads the news to all, including Maggie, the Eel's "Moll." Naturally, when Timothy, on the outside of the Dive, enters, during a scene he cannot understand why they all fall on his neck and drag him to the back room. His attempts to escape are all in vain. They insist on hiding him in the retreat. Meanwhile, the director, thoroughly disgusted, leaves the scene. Then, in a skirmish, the makeup is rubbed off of Timothy's face and they see that he is not the Eel, but believe that he is a spy or a detective. They fight him and it is only the interference of the police that stops them. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
