Each time that he asks for a job he gets thrown out. Finally he meets a physician who offers him work, explaining that his patient is very, very wealthy and as crazy as she is rich. This does not appeal to Billie, but he consents to take the job when he is told that all he has to do is to play Marc Antony to her Cleopatra. He conjures up visions of cocktails, moonlight excursions on the Nile and all sorts of delightful things, and he accepts the job with alacrity and profuse thanks. But Cleo isn't quite as young as she used to be, and this is something of a shock to Billie, and he remembers that the doctor explained a cut in Marc Antony's coat by reference to a knife. Still, he braves it out, but gets in wrong almost instantly by laughing in her face when she comments on his changed appearance. This is smoothed over, a couple of times, and Cleopatra decrees that the evening shall be spent in revelry to celebrate her beloved's return. All might have been well had it not been for Charmian, in reality Cleopatra's maid, and a chubby little dancer. Bill gets Cleo jealous and has to run for his life. He sees a policeman and seeks his protection. Accidentally the policeman clubs Cleopatra and she is restored to sanity. She disowns her love for Bill and turns to the doctor. Bill is quite willing to take Charmian instead, and the policeman steals away, feeling that he is needed elsewhere. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
