Then Tom becomes the unwitting cause of trouble. He is a bachelor and wealthy. He has known the young couple since they were kids and takes an old friend's privilege of giving them presents and entertaining them in many ways. Tom and May become great chums, and Roy gradually becomes meanly suspicious. He unjustly assumes that Tom is winning his wife's heart with money. Roy broods over this. It is the custom of the neighborhood grocer to entrust every morning to Roy the earnings of the day before, for which Roy gives him a receipt, and on his arrival in town deposits in his bank the money to the credit of the grocer. But one night, as Roy makes his way home, expecting to find some new evidence of Tom's regard for May, he is accosted by the grocer, who hands him a large sum of money. During the day the store has been sold, and will Tom keep the money over night and deposit it next day as usual? Roy accepts the money and a sudden daring thought assails him. Why not fake a robbery and lavish the money on May, since it is by money that she can be held? Late that night Roy breaks into his own home and is surprised to hear May and Tom talking in the drawing-room. Since she is supposed to be at her mother's, his suspicions are fanned into flame. Roy leaves the money and goes to listen. But a thief who saw the grocer hand the money to Roy, and who, peering through the window, has seen Roy secrete it in the sideboard drawer, steals the money and makes away. Roy discovers the theft and his cry of amazement brings Tom and May in. Roy declares that he has been robbed and confesses the role he meant to play, furiously denouncing May and Tom for causing him to resort to such desperate measures. Tom and May succeed in quieting him and convince him that it is to her husband alone that May's love is given. Roy sees the truth and Tom hurries off to the station to report the loss. There he finds the money and a policeman in charge of the thief. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
