Oh, Mabel Behave Synopsis
Squire Peachem used the mortgage he holds on the innkeeper's property as a lever to win his daughter, but the daughter cannot see it that way as she loves a young swell, Randolph Roanoke. The squire, with the aid of his trusty but ignorant henchman, Blaa Blaa, seeks to sidetrack Roanoke which leads to complications, but how poorly he succeeds and how the daughter brings things around so that she has her own way furnishes the action for the burlesque which contains fights, a comedy duel, stunts and thrills.
An Amateur Devil Synopsis
Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"Oh, Mabel Behave" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
