Servant's Revenge (1909)
Bridget resents the dictation of her mistress, whose temper is a trifle more acid than usual because she is preparing the house for a dinner party. Bridget is dismissed and vows to be revenged. She bribes the grocer's assistant to change clothes with her, and in this disguise she visits the scene of her late employment, armed with a package of cascarets. These she places in the various pots and pans simmering on the stove and then disconnects the hose of the gas lamp in the dining room, connecting it with the garden hose outside the window. The dinner party starts off in an auspicious fashion, but presently the guests become uneasy, and a geyser of water from the gas jets completes their discomfiture. The butler rushes wildly after a physician, who administers wholesale treatment with miraculous effect, and the mistress, who has gone upstairs to powder her nose, comes back with her face liberally coated with burnt cork. Bridget discloses her identity and gloats over her very complete revenge.
