They become very fond of each other and Dreyfus is ill-at-ease when he sees that Aaron Stern, the young man whom he hopes will become Esther's husband, is disregarded. Edward's mother loses heavily at the whist club and her husband refuses to pay her debts. She pawns her necklace with Dreyfus. Later Dreyfus receives a note from Edward, asking him to bring Esther and meet the family. He does not inform his daughter of the visit which Mrs. Marshall has paid his place, heavily veiled, but he recalls the address on the pawn ticket. Dreyfus and Esther make the call and find the Marshalls rude and indifferent hosts. To relieve the embarrassment, Edward takes Esther for a walk. She realizes that she can never marry a Gentile, informs Edward of this, and goes home to meet Aaron, to whom she promised to give an answer. Mrs. Marshall becomes so insulting that the old pawnbroker takes the necklace from his pocket and returns it to her. He then goes home and finds a note from his daughter, stating that she has gone to be married. Thinking that Esther has eloped with the Gentile, Dreyfus flies into a passion. His rage subsides when the happy bride returns with her husband Aaron. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
