He obtains the position, little dreaming that his despised pupil, Bud, also has designs upon the silver. Bud tries to enter the house, but after being kicked out four or five times by Shifty, comes to the conclusion that he is not wanted about the premises. He tries strategy. Sneaking into the mansion, Bud dons a suit of armor standing in the dining room and prepares for whatever may befall. The Vandergrafts entertain two learned professors at dinner. Bud's manipulation of the halberd which goes with the armor, creates a fight between the educators and breaks up the function. Ignorant of Bud's presence, and taking advantage of the confusion, Shifty tries to annex the silver. Bud, however, taps him on the head with the spear. Frightened out of his wits, poor Shifty flees. Bud thereupon essays to do a better job than his mentor and rival. He is in the act of garnering the valuables when Vandegraft sees him. The revolver in the rich but honest man's hand causes Bud to flee. Shifty sees him coming and is scared stiff. Eventually, however, he discovers the identity of the man in the armor. Seizing him, Shifty throws Bud into a lake. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
