One day while Horace is out of the office, Kitty mistakes Jonas Collamore, a defendant in a divorce suit for whom Horace is acting, for an important client. Kitty agrees to lunch, and, swallowing many maraschino cherries along with their cocktails, becomes drunk. Jonas takes her to a nearby inn where they are followed by Mrs. Collamore's detectives, who then summon Mrs. Collamore and her lawyer Horace. Kitty realizes Jonas is trying to create a compromising situation, and she leaves through the window. When the detectives break in, the only trace of Kitty is her hairpin. Kitty and Jonas then conspire to entrap their spouses. Both couples manage to straighten out their domestic problems at the last minute. Written by AFI See less
