Getting Even (1914)
Harold and Percy, a couple of ribbon counter clerks, leave the store on payday for a good time. Percy, having sent all his money home, Harold invites him for an auto ride. To make up a party, they take along two young ladies. After hours of riding, Harold notices that the meter registers $15.00, and, getting fainthearted, he jumps from the machine, leaving poor Percy to pay the bill, which he has to do with but watch and stick pin. The following day the boys, while trying to flirt with a pretty girl, see a tramp steal her purse. Harold gives chase and quickly overtakes the thief. To make a hit with the girl, Harold gives the tramp ten dollars for the purse. As the theft has not been noticed by the girl, Percy sees a chance to get even. He tells the girl that Harold stole the parse. She calls the police and has Harold arrested, while Percy walks off in triumph with Mabel.
