One Way Street Synopsis
Bobby Austin becomes infatuated with Lady Sylvia Hutton, a leading member of British society, and asks that she divorce her husband and marry him instead. Lady Sylvia refuses, and Bobby terminates their relationship. To escape the humiliation of being put aside, the irate noblewoman then makes it appear that Bobby has cheated at cards and orders him from her house. Elizabeth Stuart, a beautiful young woman in love with Bobby, finds proof of Lady Hutton's duplicity and confronts her with it. Lady Sylvia becomes enraged and then suddenly loses her beauty, becoming in seconds a withered old hag. She subsequently reveals that she was once an operatic favorite, had been cast aside when her voice gave out, and had lately been restored to the appearance of youth by a surgeon so that she might return to society and again bask in its acclaim. Bobby tells Elizabeth of his love, while Lady Sylvia finds solace in the arms of her husband.
Beans Synopsis
Brewster, the bean king, has an option of renewal on a certain bean canning plant owned by Ellis. Ellis does not desire to renew and hires Wingate, a shyster lawyer, to help him. Brewster has to send Betty to renew the contract. Later he sends his lawyer to help her and Ellis' man persuades her that he is a plotter. There follows plot and counter-plot, but all-innocently Betty carries the day.
