Smooth as Satin

Gertie Jones, a female raffles posing as a maid in a fancy home in order to rifle the safe, surprises Jimmy Hartigan in the act of robbing that very safe. She offers to split the take 50-50, a proposition to which he is about to agree when the police arrive. Jim takes full responsibility for the crime, protecting Gertie from arrest. Gertie helps Jim escape from jail, and they take refuge in the country, where they are married by an overeager magistrate who believes them to be an eloping couple. Jim and Gertie decide to go straight and return to the city, investing $10,000 in stolen cash with Bill Munson, who runs off with it. Jim is rearrested by a detective, and Gertie goes after Munson, recovering the money. Jim is being returned by rail to the penitentiary when Gertie boards the train, offering the money to the detective in return for Jim's freedom. The detective refuses until Jim and Gertie save his life when the train is caught in a tunnel collapse. The detective then promises to return the money, letting Jim go to begin a new life with Gertie.

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.
