- This film holds up its end as a farce - it even has a story to tell, that of a young couple secretly married long enough to have a baby "more than a year old," which they dare not acknowledge. There is plot enough to supply a high comedy, but it soon becomes submerged in the swift farce, too swift at times - one cannot follow the lines of interest - but rich with material. It is a good farce, well calculated to maintain the Keystone reputation.
