His Stubborn Way (1911)
Samuel Blumstead, a groucho, orders his wife to stop fanning herself, shut the window, and also made his daughter, Myrtle, stop playing the piano, as he claims it gets on his nerves. He also made Edward, a friend of Will, who is Myrtle's sweetheart, stop playing the piano when he called. Will, seeing that it will be a difficult problem to ask for the hand of Myrtle, concocted a scheme in which Edward is to pose as Myrtle's sweetheart. Edward put the question to Mrs. Blumstead, who promptly gave her consent. In the meantime, Will made the old man understand that his father was a great friend of his, and further cultivated his acquaintance by playing chess and allowing himself to be beaten by old Blumstead. Will, eventually, asked Mrs. Blumstead for the hand of Myrtle, who refused, having given it to Edward. Mr. Blumstead, immediately vetoed his wife's desires, and gave the hand of Myrtle to Will, the real lover.
