Gaston, a French waiter, wins a large sum of money in a gambling pool and embarks on a wild spending spree while his sweetheart, Musette, who has always been practical and thrifty, ridicules his irresponsible actions.

Bonnie Annie Laurie Synopsis
Annie Laurie is betrothed to Donald McGregor just before he leaves Scotland to fight the Germans in France during World War I. At home, Annie discovers a man washed up on the shore and cares for him until her father, fearing that she and the stranger, Lieutenant Hathaway, are falling in love, turns him out of the house. When Hathaway recovers, he returns to the front where he befriends Donald, while Annie becomes a Red Cross nurse. Both men are wounded in a charge and hospitalized. There Annie, though still torn between the two, eventually decides to honor her vow to Donald and marries him.
