Everything would have been lovely if the widow's daughter, Lillian, had not come in on the scene just at this moment wearing an engagement ring. She confesses to her horrified mother that she is in love and has promised to marry the leading man of a movie company. Mamma puts her foot down very emphatically on Lillian marrying a movie actor and orders her to return the ring immediately. But the handsome leading man sincerely loves Lillian and is upset by her mother's injustice. Then he gets an idea. "Just leave the matter in my hands," he tells her. So he frames up a little scheme on mamma, disguising himself as a baron of wealth, and makes himself known in this identity to the widow. She falls. Binks is left in the cold. The supposed Baron is invited to call. The protesting Binks is ousted. The leading man then invites Lillian and her mamma to "inspect his motion picture interests" the next day. Lillian, of course, accepts and mamma is delighted. The next day the outraged Binks is let in on the frame-up. He is ordered to have a real minister on hand at the studio with the promise that he will surely have a chance to marry the widow. So Lillian and mamma accompany the supposed Baron. They arrive at the studio. The movie director is also let in on the frame-up and promises to aid the scheming couple. A wedding scene is set up on the stage. Binks arrives with the real minister. Mamma is awfully interested. She does not dream for a moment that the affair is real when the director approaches the supposed Baron and Lillian asking as a favor that they help him out by acting in his wedding scene. They do this and go through the marriage ceremony watched by interested mamma. Imagine her horror when she discovers that the whole thing is real! After she recovers she realizes the humorous side of it all and gladly marries the happy Binks. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
