A Siren of Impulse (1912)
Mariana, the rose of the little Spanish village, being a tantalizing coquette, has the hearts of all the village men agog by her flirtatiousness, until Jose finally wins her heart and hand. Shortly after her marriage Fiesta Day arrives, and though she desires to attend the dance in the evening, Jose, through jealousy, refuses to allow her to go. At first she is defiant, and dresses to go, but later she decides to respect her husband's command and instead of going, lends her festival dress to her friend Gloria. As the party leaves, a child enters and solicits Mariana's aid for her sick mother. Jose, returning to the house after his temper has cooled, finds his wife absent, and, of course assumes she has gone to the dance. This assumption is strengthened by seeing his erstwhile rival in the distance on the way to the gardens with Gloria, who, in his wife's attire, he reasonably mistakes for Mariana. A tragedy is narrowly averted.
