Busted Hearts and Buttermilk (1918)
Sheesa Bear, the queen of the Slums, ruled the underworld. She grew very temperamental and deciding to masquerade as Miss Cauliflower, moved into society for some easy cash. Percival Pyface and his wife, pillars of society, were the victims of her wiles. The neglected wife becomes jealous of her enchanted husband. "Percival Pyface, all is over between us, but don't forget the alimony," cried the despairing wife when she found her husband in the embrace of the designing woman. Time has elapsed, and while the unfaithful husband, still under the spell of the vampire, is dissipating his young life in strong buttermilk, the unhappy wife resorts to gambling - solitaire. The landlord comes for the rent, but the poverty-stricken woman had lavished it all on a pound of sugar. Her husband finally deserts the vampire and goes to his wife's rescue, but finding her out, he leaves money for her support and that of their offspring. She pays the rent, but believing her husband still unfaithful, resorts to a cruel fate. But the vampire finds the despairing wife and takes her to her rendezvous. But the husband follows and rescues his wife and child in the nick of time, spurning the vampire, who picks his best friend for her next victim.
