She starts to break up dishes and gets into a fight with Pat. Pat fires her after he has been beaten up. Pat takes offense at Ned Lusk, a young physician, who is engaged to his daughter, Molly, and makes her give back the engagement ring. They plan to start something, and Ned gives Molly a box of rat poison. She lets Pat find the label and while he is 'phoning the chemist she puts the poison in the soup. There is a wild dash to have the soup analyzed and it is pronounced poisonous. Ned uses the stomach pump and gets Pat back to safety, which so pleases Pat that the engagement is renewed. Pat announces his recovery to the crowd and his eye lights on Dinah, whom he blames for the whole trouble. The picture ends with another free fight. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
