Mrs. Romana's Scenario (1914)
Mrs. Romana had a warm romantic Latin temperament. When the first warm touch of spring was felt in the air, she, like the birds, desired new plumage. She wished to have a new hat. Mr. Romana was unmoved by his wife's happy idea. He told her that her old hat was plenty good enough. After calling her husband a pig, Mrs. Romana relapsed into a state of melancholia, from which she was aroused by an advertisement in a magazine. The advertisement was to the effect that untold wealth might be accumulated by writing photoplays. Mrs. Romana was overjoyed. She immediately saw how she could get the money for her spring hat. Unfortunately she had no ideas for the play. That night Mrs. Romana was suddenly struck with a great and wonderful idea for the play. Arising and striking a light, she wrote the wonderful idea on the first thing she laid her hands upon, which happened to be her husband's shirt. The next morning Mr. Romana arose hastily and departed with the literary shirt upon his back. Immediately thereafter befell great and startling adventures. For Mrs. Romana's idea for her motion picture play had been somewhat sensational. Accordingly, such expressions as "$5,000," "Murder," 'Death," and "Blackhand," were in considerable evidence. Romana, discovering that the shirt was soiled, gave it to a scrubwoman. A lynx-eyed detective discovered it in her possession, read a few of the bloodthirsty words, and took it to the station house. The incriminating document was traced back to Romana, who was placed in a highly uncomfortable position until his wife appeared and cleared matters up.
