Mr. Newlywed does not like the idea, but not wishing to make Mrs. Newlywed think that he doubts her cooking abilities, he pretends important engagements that keep him away during meal hours. But she corners him one morning at breakfast and poor hubby is made to eat Wifie's cooking. One of the most important factors are the doughnuts, which are as hard as rocks, and poor hubby, pretending that he likes her cooking, rids the table of the doughnuts by putting them in his pocket, unnoticed by Wifie. Leaving home, Mr. Newlywed finds it very hard to dispose of the doughnuts. After making dozens of trials of throwing them away or leaving them somewhere and always getting them back, he throws them into the wastebasket. Wife, in the meantime, has lost her diamond ring. After a thorough investigation she realizes that it must be in one of the doughnuts hubby had eaten. Calling a doctor and a stomach pump she rushes to her husband's office, and they try to operate on him, but hubby will not be operated on without an explanation. Hubby then promises to return the ring if Wifie will get a real cook. The promise is made, doughnuts are brought forth and the ring is recovered. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
