The Other Woman (1912)
Dorothy Kent secretly loves her employer, William Smythe, a photographer. Smythe and his pretty assistant have, for some years, been attempting to perfect a process of color photography. Smythe grows discouraged and is about to abandon the work when Dorothy suddenly achieves the desired goal. Smythe embraces Dorothy, much to that young lady's pleasure. Smythe's wife has observed the embrace. Believing that she has interrupted a liaison between Miss Kent and her husband, she takes her child and leaves. The husband rushes home. He finds that his wife has left him for good. Upon returning to the office he finds that Dorothy has patented and sold the color process secret, and is now wealthy. The years pass, Smythe, once strong and prosperous is now the penniless, dissipated plaything of the vampire woman Dorothy. Fate has also dealt harshly with Mrs. Smythe and we now find her reduced to the position of scullery maid. By coincidence she is employed by Dorothy. Smythe calls upon Dorothy for the last time. He shows her a revolver. He asks for a last kiss. She gives him a sneer. He turns to go and comes face to face with his wife. Slowly, a mutual understanding comes to the long-estranged pair, and as they leave the room, happy once more in the possession of each other, the other woman slowly, cynically picks up the revolver and, the picture ends, leaving behind it a moral.
