How it feels

A judge buys a flashy new coat. The coat attracts unwanted attention from his family and coworkers, so he gets rid of it. The coat changes hands several times before ending up at a pawn shop, where the owner sees the judge's name on it and returns it to him, thinking it was stolen.

What happens

And His Coat Came Back è un cortometraggio muto del 1909. Il nome del regista non viene riportato nei credit. Un giudice si compera un cappotto. Ma il capo d'abbigliamento, troppo appariscente, provoca una serie di reazioni in famiglia e al lavoro che inducono il giudice a disfarsi del nuovo acquisto. Dopo una serie di passaggi di mano, il cappotto capita al Monte dei Pegni dove il proprietario vede sulla targhetta il nome del giudice e, credendo che sia stato rubato, lo riporta al suo vecchio proprietario.
