The Fibbers Synopsis
Husband and wife lie to each other to conceal a pending important event. Jealousy and suspicion lead to a comedy of errors and nearly a tragedy.
The Little Shepherd of Bargain Row Synopsis
Aware that his sons, Joseph and Dickie, possess no business sense, Henry Hyman, on his deathbed, tells his economy-minded private secretary, Nora Blake, to take charge of his jewelry store. After the old man dies, however, his manager, Travers, insists that he has been made the boss. He then uses the status that goes with the position, as well as a necklace that he has stolen from the store, to woo Lucile Hudson away from her fiance Dickie. While Dickie then becomes engaged to Edna, Nora's best friend, Nora begins a romance with Joseph, who knows just enough about assets and deficits to complain that Travers is bankrupting the store. Nora then learns that Travers stole the necklace and has the police arrest him, after which she assumes control of the business and marries Joseph.
"The Fibbers" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Little Shepherd of Bargain Row" offers its own unique cult appeal.
