Chivalrous Charley Synopsis

Charley Riley, who has a temperamental fault of chivalrous conduct toward ladies, is shipped west by his uncle with the expectation that the rough life will stiffen him. Back in New York, however, Charley is involved in two escapades and lands in jail; later, as he is about to enter his apartment, a young lady appeals to him for shelter from her pursuers and he offers her the hospitality of his apartment for the evening. Her father appears the next morning and forces him to marry her. Alice, who is in league with crooks, departs, then, presumably in distress, sends for him. At her home, Charley is set upon by the thugs, but he escapes with the girl and leads his pursuers to the police station. Impressed with his courage and daring, Alice decides to make her marriage actual as well as legal.

The Imp Synopsis

After she is hit on the head with a golf ball, Jane Morgan, whose interest in criminals has led her to admire the notorious pickpocket Annie Adams, comes out of a coma believing she is Annie.

Gregory then disguises himself as "The Leopard," whose creed of relieving the public of its superfluous wealth, appeals to Jane. When her true sex is revealed during some rough-housing in a Chinatown den, she falls in love with him. After they rob her parents' safe and the Leopard shoots the intruding butler, Jane faints thinking that her love may be electrocuted. When she awakens recovered and learns that the shooting was acted out to shock her to health, she and Gregory marry.
