Although no vows are exchanged it is easy to see that she is just as much fascinated by him and the parting is a very sad one when Jack receives a telegram from his father that they sail the following day. Two years elapse and fickle Mabel, who soon forgot Jack, is now settled down and married to Charles Goring. Jack returns and is riding through the country lanes on his horse when the animal stumbles as Mabel comes unexpectedly through a gap in the hedge, and throws him heavily to the ground at her feet with a dislocated arm. She and her husband help him to the house and send for the doctor. Meantime she has recognized her former admirer, and has great difficulty in restraining her tears. The doctor quickly sets the broken arm, and Jack prepares to leave. Mabel, however, follows him through the park and soon catching up with him they begin to talk over old times. Charles, who has followed, thinks that his wife is flirting with a stranger and is upset. His first idea is to shoot himself, but finally he decides to appeal to an aunt of his who lives close at hand. Jumping into his automobile he drives over and the sharp-witted woman soon devises a plan for testing Mabel's affections. She introduces him to a pretty girl who is staying with her, and they all three motor back to his home, where they find Mabel and Jack in a close conversation on a garden seat. Her husband, however, pays little attention and in accordance with the plan they have concocted pretends to be busily engrossed with his aunt's pretty friend. This soon disturbs Mabel, and getting sore with Jack she follows the couple only to have her suspicions confirmed that they are flirting. She returns and sobbing tells her aunt that her husband is no longer true to her and enters the house. The aunt calls the others and they all follow. She, however, overhears them and determining to give her husband a good fright, seizes a pistol and fires it off in the air, at the same moment falling into a chair and pretending to be shot. Rushing in all are cowed at the turn matters have taken and commence to administer restoratives, but she soon jumps up and begins to upbraid her husband and the girl. They soon explain that the joke is on her and she and her husband fall into one another's arms declaring that they will not be so jealous of one another in the future.
