What happens

The Girl Engineer è un cortometraggio muto del 1913 diretto da J.P. McGowan. Il film è il ventitreesimo episodio del serial The Hazards of Helen, uno dei numerosi corti che girarono insieme McGowen e la moglie, l'attrice Helen Holmes. Il soggetto si deve all'attrice, qui alla sua prima sceneggiatura. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
