THE STORY: In LOYALTY, a confirmed bachelor is visited in the wee hours by a friend and neighbor who has just had a battle-royal with his wife—and has decided that divorce is the only answer. The wife thereupon threatens suicide and in the ensuing confusion, as the friend tries to mediate between husband and wife while keeping them from running into each other, the husband comes to the erroneous conclusion that his friend is also his wife’s secret lover. But happily, and hilariously, things do get straightened out in the end almost.
