The cop demands that he be allowed to get the wife’s signature. Ryde has resumed his own clothes and hurries to borrow “a wife.” He secures his fiancée, who happens to be passing, gets her upstairs and into the bed. The cop is satisfied. BUT - when he has gone, the real wife returns, and the girl is still in the house. After considerable excitement and sundry narrow escapes she meets the girl and finds her to be an old friend, the fiancée of her hubby’s friend. All, thenceforth, is well with the Syx’s and affairs are amicably settled. |
