Two thieves seeing the dentist depart, enter the place to rob it. When they hear someone coming they decide to pretend they are patients and hurriedly tie their heads up. The policeman, noting the evidence of a robbery, and seeing through the ruse of the thieves, pretends he is the dentist and placing one in the chair, administers laughing gas. The second thief attempts to escape, but the policeman overpowers him, forces him into a chair and also gives him laughing gas. Nora and the policeman return to the dining room to finish their banquet, when the dentist returns, and, peeking through the window, sees Nora entertaining the policeman. He indignantly reports the policeman's absence from post, and the captain returns with the dentist and peeks in the window. Nora sees them and hides the policeman under the table. The captain sees nothing wrong, and the policeman emerges from the house with the two prisoners, who prove to be noted criminals for whom the police have long been searching. The policeman becomes a hero and is praised instead of blamed. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
