He leaves the house in anger and goes to his club. He participates in a game of cards there and indulges in an excessive amount of liquor. Returning home with heavy head he falls into a deep sleep in which he dreams that his little daughter, playing "hide and seek," locks herself in a heavy chest. All his efforts fail to open the chest. He summons a locksmith who opens the box, but the child is dead. The horror of it all awakens him and he rushes to the children's room to find them safe and sound asleep. Then and there he realizes how much he would miss their noise and resolves to join in their play hereafter. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
