A PEACH AND A PAIR (1915)

The pair are staying at a summer resort at the beach. They both "spot" the arrival of the "peach." Eddie attempts to flirt with her, and she is coy but willing. Lee, too, cannot make his eyes behave, and a breach is beginning to appear in their friendship. Eddie finds that the girl is in her room and 'phones up to her, inviting her to take a stroll on the beach. She asks him if he is the one with "the winning smile" and he tells her he sure is. She agrees to meet him outside. Lee, meanwhile, has bribed the bellboy to spy on the girl, discovers the arrangement and beats Eddie to the girl. When Eddie comes in looking for the girl he sees her and Lee strolling on the beach. He hires a boy to feign drowning and when Lee bravely tries to rescue him, the kid jeeringly swims off. While Lee is playing the brave rescuer, Eddie gets the girl and takes her off for a stroll.
