A Special Delivery

When Plump is informed that the stork is expected to visit his home shortly, he rushes to summon medical assistance. His peculiar actions and wild haste arouse the suspicion of the police officials, who have been on the lookout for some burglars who have recently been operating in the vicinity of the sanatorium. Runt, the pride of the police force, follows Plump, but in the tussle is severely worsted. The nurses in the sanatorium are in a very nervous state owing to their dread of burglars and the least noises drives them into a panic. Plump reaches the sanatorium followed by Runt and other policemen, whom he has summoned to assist him. Plump's entrance at the sanatorium in a wild and disheveled condition throws the nurses into a frenzy of fear, and they attempt to phone for help only to learn that a real burglar has entered the house during the excitement and has cut the telephone connection. The screams of the nurses have been heard by Runt and his fellow-policemen, and rushing to the house, they overpower the unfortunate Plump and drag him off to the station, where the head nurse lodges a complaint of burglary against Plump. He begs the officials to release him and explains his predicament, and is finally able to convince them of the truth of his statements. On his release he rushes madly to his home, accompanied by the doctor and the head nurse and as if Fate, desirous of making amends for his misfortunes of the earlier part of the night, Plump is rewarded by the appearance of the doctor bearing in his arms not one, but three bouncing boys.

Two Weeks Notice

1 hr 41 mins
Harvard educated lawyer Lucy Kelson, following in the footsteps of her lawyer parents, uses her career for social activism. She hides any sense of femininity behind her work. George Wade is the suave public face of the Manhattan-based Wade Corporation, a development firm that Lucy routinely opposes and whose true head is George's profit-oriented brother, Howard Wade. George, who has a reputation as a lady's man, has had as his legal counsel a series of beautiful female lawyers with questionable credentials, they who have more primarily acted as his casual sex partners. Needing a real lawyer, he offers Lucy the job of his legal counsel on a chance meeting. Despite warnings from her parents in working for the "enemy", Lucy, who has no intention of being the latest in his bed partners, accepts the job as she feels she can do more good from the inside, and as George, as part of the job offer, promises not to demolish a community center in a heritage building as part of a development project near her childhood Coney Island home where her parents still live. Although Lucy is able to effect the type of change she wanted from this position, she finds she cannot deal with George's expectations of her, namely being his primary confidante and advisor at all hours of the day and night, mostly about issues she considers frivolous. As such, she gives him two weeks notice, although she promises to help George find her replacement. As Lucy begins to review resumes, George himself unilaterally decides to hire June Carver, a fellow Harvardite, but who seems to have her sights set on George as both a boss and personal partner. As June begins to replace Lucy in seemingly all aspects of George's life, Lucy begins to realize that she herself has fallen for George. However, Lucy's feelings for George and her attempts to re-ingratiate herself into George's life are placed into jeopardy when she learns of a Wade Corporation decision against her basic sensibilities.
