An old proverb says that when two people marry, if they would be happy, they must take two little bears to live with them—their names are Bear and Forbear. Consider then the case of Caroline and Hubert Knollys.
00:51
In the library of his town house. Hubert Knollys was working late—but not too hard.

In her own room, upstairs, Mrs. Knollys was smiling—smiling at a vision, which was soon to become a reality.
02:15
"Oh, no doctor—I want to tell him myself—"
06:07
Morning follows a sleepless night of retrospection and brings with it a vital decision.
07:06
Poor dear dependent Aunt Susan—with the airs of a lady and the soul of a servant!

"Aunt Susan, can you be ready to sail with me this Thursday?"
08:52
"Why aren't you more careful with your powder, my dear?"
09:10
"Don't blame me, darling—it's whitening——some women use it to hide their freckles!"
09:29
"Aunt Susan and I are sailing on the Leviathan Thursday——please see about tickets."
09:44
When Aunt Susan came...
10:04
"I don't blame you, dear—but why not tell Hubert your precious secret and—"
10:18
"I refuse to bargain for his loyalty and faithfulness—he's forfeited his right to know."
10:31
"But it's madness to leave him here with that Madden person!"
10:41
"Then there's method in my madness!"
10:54
"I shall find a way to make him suffer—as I have suffered."
11:27
"Mr. Knollys was so busy—he sent me up with your tickets."
12:13
"You have meant so much to Mr. Knollys—I want to give you this almost new frock!"
12:44
"Why are you so kind to me, Mrs. Knollys?"
12:51
"Virtue has its own reward, dear——among women."
13:11
"That hussy—how could you be so generous!"
13:23
"I wasn't—she'll wear that gown just once!"
14:05
"Shall we say dinner at seven?"
14:27
Somewhere on Broadway where married couples dine—but not always together.
15:22
"How do you like my new gown with the little birdies on it?"
16:05
"I don't like that gown on you—don't ever wear it again."

On a certain June day, Hubert Knollys, Jr. appeared upon the scene.

The most talked about woman in Europe!

"Could anything be more romantic than moonlight in Venice?"
20:22
"Sorry, gentlemen—I have an urgent engagement!"
20:26
"You elusive woman—there is always another man!"
20:35
"Yes, a young man."
22:15
"And now, mother's little man, we're going back—home."

"My wife's returning—I think it would be more discreet, Emily, if you secured another position."

So Emily seeks her friend Michael Krellin—the next best thing.

"You once offered me a job, is it still open?"
23:41
"I'll make you a special inspector."
23:54
Mrs. Knollys returns, resolved to keep the secret of her son from her husband and carry the war into the enemy's camp.
24:17
"Aunt Susan has gone ahead to my country place—you will join her at once."
25:30
"I know Krellin—I'll introduce him—and you do the rest."

Miss Emily Madden, special inspector.

"That woman is fooling you—I'm going through her baggage!"

"What about this Paris gown?"
27:35
"I gave you my engagement dress so I brought you this for a wedding gown."

And so Hubert and Caroline were together again...
29:05
"Cheating the government, eh?"
29:14
"Is that any worse than cheating your wife?"
29:26
"I tell you that's done with, but if you still hold it against me—why don't you divorce me?"
29:44
"Because your name gives me such complete protection."
29:57
"You have broken all your marriage vows but one."
30:11
"And you have kept all of yours but one!"
30:25
"You devil!"
30:31
"You saint!"
30:49
Emily has made considerable progress with her new love affair...
31:34
"Darling, you have made me the happiest man in the world—I only wish I were worthy of you."
31:52
Mrs. Knollys plays Flame to the moths who have fluttered after her from Europe.
32:16
While upstairs Mr. Knollys dines, largely, on bitter thoughts.
33:17
"I can't see you alone—you're too adorably dangerous!"
34:03
"Mr. Sanbury is going to remodel the east wing at Westmoore."
34:17
"We shall be so busy, Hubert—it wouldn't amuse you to come along."
34:50
As the evening wore on—principally on Mr. Knollys!
36:04
"I have to attend a late lecture!"
36:42
"Tell her I haven't been here—and I left a half hour ago!"
37:33
"May I speak to Hubert—it's very important."
37:57
"Your Emily is on the phone—so it isn't all over with after all!"
38:23
"I'm going to marry Krellin."
38:31
"Great! Congratulations—"
39:55
"I can't live like this any longer—I want you."
40:25
"Careful, Hubert, powder shows so on your coat, remember."
41:00
Mrs. Sanbury and Emily and her new lover gang up on Mrs. Knollys...
41:46
"We have plenty of reason to believe, Mr. Knollys, that your wife is more than friendly with Mr. Sanbury!"
42:06
"We intend to give your wife a surprise visit—and serious charges may follow.
42:16
"I want my husband back!"
42:24
"I want my good name back!"
42:33
"If you want to save your wife from public scandal you will help us to make her bow her haughty head!"
42:49
"I, too, Mrs. Sanbury, have stood enough—together we'll see this through to a finish."
43:11
The best laid plans of mice and men——
44:14
"You poor egotistical boy, please go back to your wife. She needs you——I don't—anymore."
46:14
"Caroline, you have played havoc with the happiness of us all—you are facing scandal and divorce."
46:38
"Give me back my husband!"
46:46
"You can have him, if you can find him. I'm through with him!"
47:06
"Before these witnesses, I demand an apology to this innocent girl!"
47:18
"I apologize—"
47:24
"—for having so harshly told the truth."
47:40
"Please go, I'll settle this matter myself."
48:06
"There's a man in there!"
48:12
"Yes, there is a man in there."
49:29
"Please, Caroline——"
51:10
"All men are simply children——and I guess I can take care of both my boys."
