This short Pearl White film wasn't bad for 1913, though by today's standards, it's not so hot. A man gets married and his uncle, who has never met the bride, comes for a visit. At the same time, the couple leaves home and the butler and maid make themselves at home--dressing in the couple's clothes and having a party! When the uncle arrives, he thinks the maid is his nephew's wife. The butler sees the uncle paying all this attention to the maid and proceeds to throw him out and have a cop haul the poor uncle off to jail. The next day, the couple returns and so does the uncle and the ruse is discovered. The film is handled pretty well, with decent acting and pacing, but had the movie been made just a few years later, the film might have been a bit longer and the ending might have been a little more interesting. In this film, they are discovered and that's about it--no slapstick-style ending. An interesting curio and a modestly interesting film.
