The girl's butler schemes with an artist friend to steal a valuable painting of which there has never been a copy, reproduce it, substitute the copy and sell the original. Meanwhile, the husband of the artist's sister counterplots with a friend to steal the original painting while the artist is replacing the copy. The lover suspects the butler, turns detective, and follows him to the artist's house, where he hears the plot. The artist's brother-in-law, awaiting his chance to steal the original, hides his accomplice in the same place where the young detective is watching developments. He overcomes the intruder, climbs the fire escape, is taken for the accomplice and secures the picture, reaching the house in time to capture the butler and artist when they attempt to replace the copy. By frustrating the plots, he sets himself right with the girl's father, and proves the right to win her. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
