Daisy resents this intrusion, but Dick is rather pleased at having another man in the house to play golf and billiards with. Finding herself left very much alone she writes to her brother telling him of the situation. He answers her letter advising her to pretend to Howard that she has fallen in love with him, thus frightening him away. She tries this very successfully. Poor Howard is so overcome that he decides to leave the house at once. But he finds the letter from Daisy's brother and understands her little plan. Then he makes up his mind to turn the tables and give Daisy a bad half hour. He pretends to her that her affection is all returned and commences making wild love. She, frightened, tries to get out of his arms. It is thus that her husband finds them. He asks for an explanation. Howard with serious face tells him that he and Daisy love one another and are going away, Daisy tries to protest that this is false. Her husband pushes her to one side. He demands that Howard fight a duel with him. Howard solemnly agrees. But as all preparations are made, he tells his cousin that the Joke has gone far enough and explains it all. Despite Dick's request that he stay he says no. Taking his traps he leaves the house to the honeymooners, much to Dick's regret, but to Daisy's joy. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
