- Eileen Field is sought after by the town pest, Percy Montmorency, whom she rebuffs. Fire Chief Smaltz is also a suitor. Percy gets drunk and carelessly tosses lit cigarettes into some debris near Eileen's home, setting it ablaze. The firemen arrive, wreck the home, and use up nearly all the town's water in an effort to put out the fire. Miraculously, Eileen appears from beneath the rubble and strolls past the firemen and suitors, spurning them all.—scsu1975
- Eileen Field, a choice flower from the Garden of Baconrine's Beauties, while casually strolling along one of the city thoroughfares is annoyed by the worst of the town's pests, viz., Percy Montmorency. He follows her to her home, but he is made to leave by her father's unseeming mirth. Chief Smaltz, head of Baconrine's crew of conflagration exterminators and incendiary nemesis, inspects his motley crowd and leaves to seek amusement. He observes Eileen and being a suitor for her fair lunch-grabber, stops for a short chat of several hours and repairs to his domicile to refresh the inner man with much fodder. Percy, becoming peeved at his many rebuffs, etc., liquors up at the town emporium of refreshments and then gets devilish and smokes three successive cigarettes, nonchalantly tossing one into an assortment of debris. Said action causes a fire and we see the yellow tongues of flames angrily licking up Eileen's abode, for it was in this vicinity that this dastardly deed was done. An alarm is turned in. Baconrine's finest finally launched their craft and only wrecked half of the building and six firemen. They did not succeed in extinguishing the flames, even though they used nearly all of the town's good water. Behold, Eileen appears from beneath the ruins as if reincarnated and struts majestically forth, between the ranks of firemen and suitors alike. Spurning them all and she departs, leaving behind hearts dripping with woe and unrequited love.—Moving Picture World synopsis
