Eden and Return Synopsis
Young Betty Baylock is courted by three young men, but doesn't love any of them. However, her father--a wealthy stockbroker--demands that she choose a husband from among the three. Angered, Betty dismisses them all. She soon meets and falls for Jack Grey, a young man who has already made and squandered a fortune, and this infuriates her father even more. When Betty and Jack marry, the father throws them both out of the house, telling them that until Jack earns back all the money he has lost, he'll have nothing to do with them.
He Did and He Didn't Synopsis
The hero, jilted by his best girl, tries various methods of getting rid of life, but is frustrated at every turn. Finally he lands in jail and is noticed by a pretty philanthropist who gives him the position of butler in her home. After various amusing incidents in connection with a call by one of the girl's admirers, the butler suddenly finds himself heir to a million dollars and wins his benefactress for his wife.
"Eden and Return" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "He Did and He Didn't" offers its own unique cult appeal.
