The Beautiful Liar Synopsis

The guests at a summer resort hotel, headed by Mrs. Van Courtlandt--Van Allstyn, are preparing to stage a charity performance of a farce, and Gaston Allegretti, threatened with dismissal by the owners, has promised to obtain the services of Broadway star Elsie Parmelee. When the actress refuses, Gaston, in despair, enlists the aid of Helen Haynes, who works in a broker's office and resembles the actress. With MacGregor, a Scottish bookkeeper, she goes to the resort for what she supposes to be a vacation and is reluctant to accept an acting role until she finds that young millionaire Bobby Bates, with whom she is in love, is engaged to play opposite her; although awkward in the part, she is hailed as a great comedienne. Bobby proposes and Helen accepts, thinking he knows her true identity. Later, he learns of the real Elsie Parmelee and is disillusioned, but MacGregor admits his duplicity and all ends well.
