Chuck White, a second story man, an acquaintance of Jim's, calls to tell the latter that he has a job on for the night that would mean money to pay doctor bills, medicine, etc. Chuck explains that he has trailed a bank messenger to a rich man's home, and that the job would be an easy one to pull off. He finally persuades Jim, who promises to meet Chuck in front of an east side saloon. Mrs. Burns returns, having secured the promise of a famous doctor to visit the child a little later. Jim Burns, making a lame excuse to his wife, leaves to meet Chuck. He finds him at their meeting place and from there they go to the rich man's house, which proves to be the dwelling of the doctor who promised to visit Burns' child. Burns enters through a window and meets the doctor. The men struggle and Burns knocks the doctor unconscious. Assisted by Chuck and gathering up all valuables, he sees a memorandum in the doctor's hand which proves to be a memorandum to visit Burns' child. Chuck leaves, cautioning Burns, who, appalled at having robbed and assaulted the doctor about to attend his child, now anxiously administers to him. Through Burns' aid the doctor recovers consciousness. The doctor, having noticed in Burns' hand the memorandum of the intended visit, decides to make the call. Burns explains his presence in the room by saying he is the father of the child, his wife being over anxious having sent him. Both men leave for the Burns home. Meanwhile Chuck has brought the valuables to his own quarters and awaits the coming of Burns. The doctor and Jim arrive at the Burns home in time to save the life of the child. After the crisis has passed, the doctor leaves for his residence. Burns, stricken with remorse, leaves for Chuck's quarters intending to secure the valuables stolen and return them to the doctor. Jim, entering Chuck's quarters, seizes the valuables and is about to leave when Chuck stops him. The men fight and Burns overcomes Chuck then leaves with the valuables. In the meantime the doctor has returned to his somewhat disordered apartment, when Burns enters with valuables and dumps them at the doctor's feet, indicating that he is the one who struck and robbed him and now wishes to be forgiven. The doctor pardons him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
