„In the daughter‘s clothing“
Editorial content. „,A Woman‘
Released July 12. (Essanay).
Charlie Chaplin takes a stroll in a park where he sees a man,
his wife and daughter seated on a bench. The husband
sees a pretty girl passing and smiles at her. She smiles back and
he makes an excuse to his wife to get away and follows
her. The girl inveigles him into playing a game of blind man‘s
buff, and when he is securely blindfolded, robs him
of his pocketbook.
Chaplin offers to lead the man back to his wife, but instead
takes him to the sea and pushes him in. He then introduces
himself to the wife and daughter and they take him home with them.
When the husband gets back he is introduced to the new
found friend. He recognizes Chaplin‘s voice and a fight is started.
Chaplin, after losing part of his wearing apparel, escapes
by running upstairs.
Presently he reappears sans moustache, dressed in the
daughter‘s clothing. The flirtatious husband then tries
to make up to Chaplin and stirs his wife‘s jealousy. Another
battle is started and the wife discovers that Chaplin
is not a woman. He finally is hurled out into the street and wends
his sad way homeward.“
