As the adoring couple sit under the arbor, Zigoto, the unconventional, does sword-swallowing feats with his knife, and when he eats his soup the dissonance drowns the singing of the birds. These eccentricities of genius and his unwashed appearance in general, cause the other guests to believe that Zigoto should dine in a stable. This belief, however, does not reach Zigoto's consciousness and he eats on with appetite undiminished. Those who had taken exception to Zigoto's conduct sally forth to the roadway. There sits a blind man peddling flowers. The spirit of skylarking running in excesses, they upset the blind man's stand and steal his dog. As the unfortunate man is groping blindly about for the flowers scattered on the sidewalk, Zigoto, with the gallantry of a chevalier, enters upon the scene. He learns of the cruel joke perpetrated upon the flower vendor and pursues the culprits. He overtakes them as they are having the time of their lives throwing the dog into the river and hitting him with stones upon the bump of reverence. He throws the principal offender into the water. The man accumulates so much of the liquid through the medium of his open countenance that Zigoto believes that the wet one may contaminate the water or drain the stream. Zigoto, with the nonchalance of a deep sea diver, plunges in and rescues the spattering mischief maker. He escorts the party back to where the flower vendor is still collecting his violated wares. Zigoto coerces the subdued offenders into giving the flower vendor full value for his buds. Accepting a small bouquet from the vendor as a proof of the vendor's gratitude, he marches back to the fair Lizette. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
