Irma Chafolay lays a trap for Oscar, the susceptible. She writes to him saying she will only marry the man who knows how to improve the gifts with which nature has endowed her. Oscar obtains a part for Irma in the new play produced by Cantaloube, the great tragedian. It cost him 100 pounds for premium, but he thought if it would open Irma's heart, the conquest was a cheap one. He afterwards paid a further 100 pounds and various other sums, but money was no object if he gained Irma. Upon that point he soon began to have his doubts. He surprises Irma and Cantaloube lovemaking. He rushes in, but is calmly informed that the embracing was not love-making but the rehearsal of a scene. He believed it. Three months later Oscar received an invitation to their wedding. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis
