Her Awful Fix

As the wedding bells await, the compassionate Mary, portrayed by the luminous Billie Rhodes, diverts from her own nuptials to tend to a friend's ailing infant. This seemingly benign act of mercy swiftly plunges into a farcical crisis when a spurned suitor, now a physician, seizes the opportunity for a professionally veiled vendetta. He maliciously misdiagnoses the baby’s innocuous prickly heat as virulent smallpox, fabricating a draconian quarantine that ensnares the entire household, including Mary. Unaware of this medically sanctioned deception, Mary's anxious fiancé, Cullen Landis, driven by concern for his missing bride, unwittingly ventures into the very confinement meant to isolate them. The ensuing chaos and comedic tension are masterfully sustained until a subsequent, more ethical medical assessment dismantles the elaborate ruse, revealing the true, benign nature of the infant's condition and liberating the star-crossed lovers to finally exchange their long-delayed vows.
