MOLLY O'

 

Mack Sennett-Mabel Normand Productions, 1921.  Directed by F. Richard Jones.  Camera:  Fred Jackman, Homer Scott.  With Mabel Normand, George Nichols, Anna Dodge, Albert Hackett.

Molly O'Dair, whose mother is a washerwoman and whose father is a ditchdigger, sees a picture of Dr. John Bryant, an eligible young bachelor millionaire, in the newspaper and falls in love with him.  Later she meets him at the country club where she goes to deliver washing and, attracted by her charms, he gives her a ride in his car.  Bryant's fiancée, Miriam, understands and, at a masked ball, when he mistakes Molly for her, she returns his ring.

Molly is thrown into a compromising situation with the doctor, owing to the interference of Jim Smith, Mr. O'Dair's choice for her, and consequently she is turned into the street.  Finding her in Bryant's bedroom the following morning, O'Dair is about to shoot him, but he learns that they are married.

Later, Molly is abducted by a society crook in a dirigible, but she is rescued and reunited with her husband.
