Jacques carried the game through very well by the aid of a disguise and much effrontery, but he reckoned without his host. In his case his host was a fellow menial, a female servant with whom the chef had dallied, who at the psychological moment gave Jacques away. The disguise of the bogus Count was penetrated and justice was done. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
