Cupid's Caprice
Diretto da Oscar EagleMay Rich is secretly engaged to a manly young fellow, while her father and mother are incidentally encouraging her to accept the attentions of a typical effeminate social product. She will have none of him, as he soon learns, but he hangs on, encouraged by the heads of the family. Fascinated by her Jack, and delighting in mystery and the secrecy of it all, the romantic lovers devise a post office in the hollow of a tree in a secluded part of the rich country estate adjacent to the home of Jack, the favorite suitor. Here meetings are arranged, more love letters are placed there, and eventually the engagement ring is there concealed. Marie, May's French maid, soon discovers this love route, and when the tell-tale missives are stolen, the lovers have reason to suspect Marie and are more concerned than ever because it puts them in her power. When a valuable necklace disappears from her boudoir the police and detectives are put upon the case. Everything seems to indicate that Marie is the woman in the case, and a trap is set to catch her as she is packing her trunk for a hasty departure. Late at night, while the detectives are holding her in her room and are putting her through "the third degree," May appears and hastily leaves the house. She is a somnambulist; she is in her night dress asleep. She treads the well-worn love route; she passes over a dangerous foot-bridge and by some miracle gets safely across and there at the hollow tree they find her and the missing necklace, which she placed there. The letters, are accounted for; the maid's suspicious actions are explained as she has a package of letters and a love route of her own. She leaves to get married, so May's secret is not revealed.
