All in the Same Boat (1915)
Jack is in love with his employer's daughter, who reciprocates the feeling. Jack gets peeved when the old man calls him down and is fired. Naturally he goes to his sweetheart, Billie, for sympathy. She gladly receives him, but notices a long hair on his shoulder and accuses him of a flirtation. They part in a huff. Her father comes at this time and, seeing Jack in his house, has him thrown out. Jack, sore at the world, idly glances over his paper and sees Miss Dillpickle's advertisement for a husband in name only who is to be paid $100 a week, if he goes abroad with her. He decides to make an application for the place and is successful. He is wedded and all arrangements are made for a trip abroad on the first steamer. Billie, after Jack's departure, repents of her jealousy and accuses her father of mistreating Jack. She tries to find Jack, but in vain. At last she learns that he has left his home and has gone for a trip abroad. She is inconsolable and her father, to relieve her mind, promises to take her abroad on the first steamer. Jack and his "wife" arrive on the steamer and are looking things over when Billie and her father come up the gang plank. He is suddenly stricken with illness and hides. He dodges Billie for several days but at last they meet and renew their pledge of love. Jack's "wife" arrives at this inopportune moment and he is "in bad" on both sides. Several amusing incidents occur when Jack attempts to keep his "wife" and his old sweetheart from meeting each other. Finally his wife denounces him and tells all present that he is her husband. Just at this moment her first husband arrives with a detective and arrests her for bigamy, thus making Jack's marriage illegal. Jack's trouble ends when he is forgiven by Billie and her father and he is given another chance to make good.
