On to Reno Synopsis
When Vera and Bud, a young married couple, become financially hard pressed, Vera accepts an offer from Mrs. Holmes, a rich matron who wishes Vera to impersonate her in Reno to fulfill the residence requirements for her divorce. When Bud finds she has gone to Reno, he immediately suspects that she plans to divorce him. Mr. Holmes goes to Reno, hoping to effect a last-minute reconciliation, discovers Vera's impersonation, and threatens to have her arrested for fraud if she leaves before the 3-month period is up. He unpacks and prepares to remain with her. Mrs. Holmes and Bud arrive, and both couples are happily reconciled after Bud discovers that Holmes is the very man with whom he wishes to renew a contract that will improve his and Vera's finances.

A young man infiltrates the underworld by pretending to be a convicted burglar. While undercover, he meets a young woman who turns out to be no more a part of gangland than he, but with similar reasons for disguising herself.
"On to Reno" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Love Burglar" offers its own unique cult appeal.
