Synopsis: [From Biograph promotional materials] Her husband’s outbursts of temper force a young wife to seek refuge in the home of a neighbor, who has rendered her more than one service in the past. These little attentions of the man to his wife have provoked the husband’s jealousy, and he rushes to the neighbor’s house and demands his wife. Here is a situation, one of many, that is rich in dramatic possibilities and the Biograph players make the most of it.
