Synopsis:

When a tipsy aristocrat is over-attentive to the maid and her twisted ankle, his fiancée misreads the signs and breaks off the engagement. Distraught, he attempts suicide from ingestion and doctors are called, but it is only water!

Review:

Rather weakly plotted farce, with Chaplin dapper in frock coat. Lots of scenery chewing, not least Edgar Kennedy's unduly mirthful butler.
