The Trouble Fixer Synopsis
Wanda and Hubby, off on their honeymoon, accidentally "kidnap" their friends' baby, but after a long chase it is finally recovered by the anxious parents. Arriving in California, they start housekeeping under a tent and, incidentally, difficulties. Wanda poses as the wife of their neighbor to help him out with his father, who thinks he's married. When her own parents arrive, she has to rustle up a baby to pass off as her own. In the ensuing complications Wanda has to pass herself off as twins, appear in two places simultaneously, and pacify an irate mother, whose baby she unceremoniously commandeered . . . but everything ends happily.
An Amateur Devil Synopsis
Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"The Trouble Fixer" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
