What happens
A Telegraphic Tangle è un cortometraggio muto del 1916 diretto e interpretato da Sidney Drew. Smithers passa tutta la notte a giocare a poker evitando così di andare a una serata con la moglie. Visto che la mattina seguente il marito non è ancora riapparso a casa, la signora Smithers invia un telegramma a tutti gli amici del coniuge chiedendo se il marito ha passato la notte con qualcuno di loro. Ognuno risponde che Smithers ha passato la notte con lui. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
