Comedy.

Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? “My daughter shall only marry a Hero,” so quoth Mrs. Higgins, and poor Archibald was ignominiously pushed out of the house. “If I could only find Flivver, he would help me,” thought Archibald, and having found him surrounded by a bevy of beauty, pours out his woes into the sympathetic ear of the ever-ready-to-help Flivver. All Flivver has to do is to disguise himself as a burglar, break into their house, make as much noise as possible to wake up the old lady, then give her a good thrashing, whistle, and Archibald is to rush in, secure Flivver and marry his lady-love. Flivver is highly amused and consents, but, needless to say, makes a horrible mess of everything. He breaks into the wrong house, and real burglars into the right one, is pursued by the police and only manages to escape by the loss of his trousers.
