He pacified the fat gentleman and had almost conciliated the husband, but the latter's wife lost her skirt by accident and circumstantial evidence pointed strongly toward Hank. This caused husband to feel genuinely uncordial toward Hank, so much so that Hank had to go to bed to avoid the excitement. He forgot his hat, however, and went out in the hall to get it, but was locked out in his pajamas. He offended several parties by intruding on the privacy of their bedrooms and was also unfortunate enough to get back into the wife's bedroom to save himself from a sharp-eyed detective. He came out immediately followed by husband and two Krupps. Husband proved to be a great follower and stuck close behind through halls and stairways to the roof of a twelve-story skyscraper. Hank became overbalanced on the edge of the roof coping and an invalid who interfered, and likewise some cops who attempted to take a hand, started to teeter twelve stories above the pavement. The invalid was the only one who fell, but he lit on some peaceful pedestrians, whereas Hank and the husband fought on the edge and gave themselves black eyes and heart failure from contemplating the depths below. Meanwhile the lady who was the cause of it all sat in a room and read a magazine. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
