Life and Moving Pictures
The husband was suspicious when his new wife introduced an attractive-looking stranger as her cousin. He went out to think it over and entered a moving-picture theater. Wife and "cousin" also craved the movies, and entered a theater--the same one where husband was. The drama unfolded on the screen was an exact reproduction of the trio's lives, and troubled the conscience of wife and "cousin" exceedingly. It was also the spark which ignited the suppressed doubt and suspicion in the husband's mind. He started working with his Krupps. "Cousin" started playing hide-and-seek, and wife started bawling. As usual, her tears softened him, and after husband had worked off his ill temper, he forgave her. "Cousin" disappeared, and the only one who was inconvenienced was a nondescript gentleman who was thrown through the screen.
