He slipped said wife a note belittling her husband who took a poke at Mr. Briggs' nose and then departed in high dudgeon. Mr. Briggs, undaunted by his failure in this direction, turns his attention to the maid and is caught by Mrs. Briggs, who unceremoniously discharges the maid. Just at this moment a telegram arrives for Mrs. Briggs stating that her father has suffered a severe injury and requesting his little daughter to hurry to his bedside. Mr. Briggs immediately sees a great opportunity for a good time and before his wife can get out of the house he has telephoned to his club and requested a few friends to come over and join him in a celebration. Wife arrives at the station and is handed a telegram stating that an error had been made. She thereupon starts back home. In the meantime Mr. Briggs has been joined by his friends, and they are having one great time when wife arrives home. One of the party knew what a temper she had so he immediately hid under a bed, not knowing that it was Mrs. Briggs' room. So while Briggs was busy getting the others out, wife discovers the clubman under her bed and lets out a lusty scream. Mr. Briggs, ever ready, came to her immediate assistance and thought fast. Under the bed he went and disguised his friend as a burglar and hustled him off for the law to deal with, said law being a café where they were joined by some other friends in a glorious good time. But murder will out and the resentful friend of the early morning, discovering Mr. Briggs in such company, telephones immediately to Mrs. Briggs, who comes on the run with a large cleaver. She soon has the café in a turmoil with her chasing Mr. Briggs around the place. It cost Mr. Briggs a pretty penny to square himself. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
