Borrowed Husbands Synopsis

While her husband, Gerald, is in South America on an archaeological expedition, vivacious Nancy Burrard lightens her boredom with several flirtations. Believing her to be a widow, Major Desmond becomes infatuated with her; he meets Gerald in South America, however, and advises him to hurry home. The Burrards are reconciled, and all ends well (except in the case of Dr. Langwell, another of Nancy's dalliances, who has poisoned his nurse, Peggy Fleurette, and then committed suicide).

By Injunction Synopsis

"King" McAllister's word is law, judge, and jury in the cattle country where he lives with his daughter Panchita. His foreman, Price Purcell, believed he had a chance of winning Panchita's hand until the arrival of Buck Lumsden, who settled all doubts concerning the likely winner. Buck did not make a hit at first because he was "down and out" but he lingers and is made foreman of the year's round-up which was not altogether to Purcell's liking. Purcell plans to ruin Buck in the estimation of the boss as well as Panchita. After the round-up, all adjourn to the dance hall and gambling resort to celebrate, and Purcell lures Buck into a roulette game. Buck loses not only his own money but a large amount belonging to McAllister. Purcell returns to McAllister with the news of Buck's disloyalty. Buck has married Panchita. He is obliged to flee the country and sets out to raise enough money to repay McAllister for the amount he had lost to Purcell.
