Mary's Boomerang

Believing that all men are born flirts, Mary resolves to show up Cullen, Grace's husband, whom Grace thinks is a model. She writes a note to Cullen making an appointment at a hotel, wearing a white flower as a sign of recognition. Cullen passes the buck to his friend Fred, who keeps the appointment, and they have a lobster and trimmings in the hotel café. When the waiter hands him the bill, Fred discovers he has left his wad on the piano at home, and calls up Cullen, who rushes to the rescue. Cullen's wife, Grace, returns home and is told by the maid that he has gone to the hotel. When he returns Grace is peeved at his absence. In the meantime Fred has got too gay with Mary, who resents his manner and goes to Grace's house. Fred follows. There Mary finds Grace packed up and ready to leave, accusing Cullen of flirting. Explanations are in order, amicable relations established, Cullen vindicated and Mary convinced that she has handled a "boomerang."
