Dad decides to go visit the boy. The son and his wife are giving a dinner-dance at their home when he arrives and walks into the ballroom unannounced. The guests smile at the old "fogy" and Dad instantly sizes up the situation. A week elapses. Kitty breaks a luncheon engagement for Dad, and he meets her at a café in a private stall, adjoining the one occupied by Willie's wife and Van Alstyn. Dad offers him $10,000 to leave a letter which he will dictate so that Willie's wife can discover it. Van Alstyne accepts and Dad writes a letter coming supposedly from Van Alstyne's wife to the effect that his wife knows of his affair with Willie's wife. Willie's wife finds it and leaves Van Alstyne. Dad then turns on Kitty and offers her the same amount to send a note to Willie to the effect she is to marry him (Dad). Kitty accepts Dad and Willie's wife returns home. They find Willie, who has received Kitty's note. Dad indicates he knows about it and Willie sheepishly admits he has been foolish. Dad joins their hands together. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
