He Loved Her So Synopsis
The jealous husband suspects that his wife is fickle but cannot discover any evidence until the butler hands her a letter one morning. He snatches it from her, and only waiting to read "My Dearest Sweetheart," tears it up and storms about the room. The wife pleads with him, but he goes out and buys a revolver. The wife, changing her clothes, also goes out. The cook, spying the discarded dress across her mistress' bed, puts it on, in celebration of an evening with the butler. When the husband returns and sees, in the half-lit dining room, the cook with his wife's dress on, in the arms of a man, he draws his revolver and fires. The cook, though unhurt, falls to the floor. The husband turns in the hall just as his wife enters with a man by her side. The wife introduces her father to the trembling husband, who then realizes his mistake in not reading all of the letter which told of the parent's coming. The three go into the other room where the cook and the butler laughingly tell of the mistake in identity.
