And His Wife Came Back (1913)
In the flat opposite Bunny's, just across the air-shaft, lives a very attractive widow. Bunny flirts with her and is caught in the act by his wife, who is going to the country. He tacks down the shade and promises that it will remain that way during her absence. She bids him a fond farewell, but she is no sooner on her way when Bunny unfastens the shade and continues his flirtation with the widow. This continues for two or three days, when an old maid living in another apartment of the house, sees their doings and considers it her duty to notify Mrs. Bunny of the proceedings. She goes to the telegraph office and sends his wife a wire, advising her to come home at once. Upon receipt of the telegram, Mrs. Bunny loses no time in packing her grip and starting homeward. That morning, John tries to cook himself breakfast, but makes a mess of it and is doomed to go to work without eating. The widow is solicitous about his comfort and calls to him across the shaft. He goes to the window and shoves a board from her window over to his. She spreads a table cloth on it, and he, with the aid of a cane, and she, with the aid of her parasol, manage to serve Bunny with an excellent meal. Just as he is in the midst of its enjoyment, his wife comes back and catches him. She berates the widow and tirades John. She calls in a carpenter and has the window boarded up, forever shutting out all communication between her husband and the widow.
