John Glayde's Honor

John Glayde, one of the master minds of America, becomes oblivious to the claims of his wife, Muriel, on his affection, in his mad strife for power. This finally results in Muriel's rebellion, and she accepts an invitation from some friends to go to Paris. There her beauty attracts the attention of Trevor Larode, who begs a sitting. The intimacy of the studio leads to Larode's falling in love with Muriel much to his mother, Lady Larode's, dismay. She wires Glayde to come on in order to prevent a scandal and he, made suddenly alive to his peril, drops his work and hastens to Paris, where he tells Larode that his calls on Mrs. Glayde must cease. The affair has gone too far, however, and Muriel and young Larode elope that night. They are overtaken by Glayde, who, in his masterful way is about to put an end to the artist, when, in a powerful scene, Muriel tells him it is not love, but pride in John Glayde's honor that makes him wish to kill, and he is crushed with the realization that he has forever lost her love. And the play ends with him sadly realizing that in gaining power he has lost that which he most needed to enjoy it.

Amish Stud: The Eli Weaver Story

1 hr 25 mins
While he's out fishing with his Mennonite friend Jeremiah Peters on the morning of 2 June, Amish Eli Weaver receives a message via a call to Jeremiah's cell phone that Eli's wife, 29-year-old Barbara Weaver, has been found shot dead in their bed. While the Amish elders want to deal with the issue solely within their community, the Wayne County Sheriff's Department is forced to investigate in the murder having taken place in their jurisdiction, the two investigators being Detectives Bruce London and Mike Maxwell. What is subsequently shown is the current investigation interspersed with flashbacks of Eli and Barbara's life, which Eli admits to the investigators was not always perfect. Those flashbacks show that prior to their marriage, Barbara wanted to marry for romantic love, which is not the Amish way. Eli seemingly wanted the same; he was the black sheep of his family in not always adhering to Amish strictures. London and Maxwell have their theories of who the murderer is; they suspect Eli, who isn't reacting like a typical grieving husband and father, but they know they'll have problems finding evidence because the Amish Eli will have no digital footprint; and the community's sole telephone is a public one for emergencies, usable by anyone. They hope that the unofficial traditional Amish communication network, rampant gossip, will provide some clues. They find that some talk emerges in the form of a collection of women not in the community who were a part of Eli's secret life as the Amish Stud.
