Cold Feet
Directed by Al ChristieA wealthy father tries to discourage his daughter's taste for stories of the Mounted; her imagination conjures up the ideal lover as one who wears that red coat and whose slogan is "get your man." She arrives at her father's camp in the frozen North the victim of a frameup: her father had planned that his employees must discourage her in every manner possible. Consequently one is made up as an Indian guide, another as a "hefty" villain who must kidnap her, and the shortest of the group as a Mountie. The idea is if she sees him she will be disillusioned. The conspirators meet her train and she is guided over the trackless wastes to a broken-down shack half-buried in snow. A girl employee burlesques the forsaken, thoroughly-ruined heroine, and four other tricksters masquerade as wolves. A few hunters spying the "wolves" shoot with intent to kill, and a real bear enters the hut and scatters the plotters. The scheme works well, even with all these inconveniences, until a genuine Mountie appears on the scene and administers punishment to the arch-villain and his dwarf-like henchman. As a result the girl's romantic imagination vindicates her beau ideal. The two lovers are last seen standing chest-deep in the snow.
