While dining at a restaurant, he greatly disgusts Bunny at a near-by table by fervently caressing the wisp of hair. A couple of Artie's college chums enter, see him with the lock of hair and cleverly substitute some horsehair for the blond tresses, placing the latter, unnoticed, in Bunny's pocket. Artie is wild with rage, and believing Bunny put the horsehair in his pocket, vows vengeance. Bunny goes to the office and that evening, instead of going home, he goes to the club, where he sits in a game of poker. He "cleans up" and next morning gives Flora, his wife, a goodly portion of his winnings to quiet her expostulations regarding his late hours. Already made suspicious by his generosity, she becomes convinced he has been up to some deviltry, searches his pockets and finds the golden tress. Bent on revenge, she sallies forth with the lock of hair, and attempts to match it with the tonsorial adornments of every blond she meets. Her experiences are very funny and decidedly strenuous, but she does not locate the owner of the hair. Meantime, Bunny meets Artie in a restaurant and they nearly come to blows. The manager separates them, however, and they soon become friends. Blondy enters and Artie introduces her to Bunny. The three make a jolly party, and all goes well until they leave the restaurant. Then Flora happens by and not only discovers the hair to match the blond tresses she has, but also sees her husband in the lady's company. For a while a big time is imminent, but explanations clear matters up and Artie and Blondy take their departure, while Bunny is obliged to buy Flora a huge bouquet of flowers to pacify her. It takes most of his roll, but he feels it is worth it. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
