Gladys then volunteered. Henry, Gladys' husband, while he loved his wife, was more or less of a slave to his stomach, and when he and his father-in-law considered some of the weighty things handed up by the enthusiastic wife, they threw the biscuits and the other "coarses" out of the window and hied themselves to a restaurant. Gladys is in high glee when she sees the food gone and is told by the deceivers that they have eaten it all with much relish. While they are gone, the gardener finds the biscuits on the lawn and brings them in to his mistress, fearing that the birds might eat them with dire results. She cries and mildly denounces the ingrates who turned up their noses at her cooking. She goes to the employment agency and gets Bridget back again, arranging to play a trick on Henry and her father. Bridget prepares a tempting meal, and when the men have disposed of it, Gladys tells them she cooked it. They are loud in their praises of the new "cook," and tell her that Bridget never cooked a meal like that in her life. This is too much for Bridget, who, forgetting her manners, listens at the door. She rushes in, asserts herself and pulls the mask from Gladys' face. So happy are the men to get her back they pay her liberally in advance. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
