The opening scene is a café in a hotel where some Spanish adventurers are gathered about a table drinking. Marie, the daughter of one of these adventurers, is sitting at a table flirting with her fiancé, Pepito. But on the entrance of a stunning looking stranger Marie loses interest in her fiancé and begins to make eyes at the handsome new arrival. Pepito pouts, but Marie soothes him with sweet words, as she knows it would not help her plans with her new admirer to have Pepito lose his temper. As time goes on, this little harmless flirtation between Marie and the foreigner becomes a serious love affair and the couple finally get married. But the very night of the ceremony we see the bride waiting at the door of their apartment looking anxiously down the hall as if on the lookout for someone, and when her husband questions her she answers with a wave of the hand that she's just expecting a friend. The husband is naturally annoyed at her indifference on the very first day of their wedded life, but when he sees that the friend is no other than Pepito he becomes justly indignant and a struggle ensues between the two men. Marie tries to interfere, but the butler appearing at that moment, at a sign from Marie's husband, pushes Pepito and the girl through the window right out on the greensward below. The picture is full of local color and gives one an idea how lightly these pleasure-loving people look upon the more serious things of life. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
