Kid, The (1921)

[bunniefuu]

A picture with a smile —
and perhaps, a tear.

"Charity Hospital"

The woman — whose
sin was to be a mother.

Alone.

The man.

His morning promenade.

"Awkward a*s."

"Pardon me, you dropped something."

Please love and care
for this orphan child.

"Is that yours?"

"What's its name?"

"John."

FIVE YEARS LATER

"Put the quarter in the gas meter."

"You know what streets we worked today?"

All's well...
Job number 13.

Off duty.

The woman —
now a star of great prominence.

Congratulations on your
performance last night.

Professor Guido, impresario.

"Read what the critics say... wonderful!"

Charity —
to some a duty, to others a joy.

Enter — his brother.

"You wicked boy."

"Go lick 'im."

"If your kid beats my brother,
then I'm going to beat you."

"And you wouldn't strike this man,
would you?"

"Remember — if he smites you on one cheek,
offer him the other."

A successful retreat.

"Oh, well, I guess
he's not in."

"This child is ill. Get a doctor at once!"

"I must go now, but I'll return."

The country doctor.

"Say 'ah'."

"Louder!"

"Are you the father of this child?"

"Well — practically."

"Explain yourself."

Please love and care
for this orphan child.

"This child needs proper care and attention."

"I'll attend to the matter."

Convalescence

The proper care and attention.

County Orphan Asylum

"Ask him where the kid is."

"Ask him if he's got any belongings."

"Tell him it's none of his business."

Night.

"You don't charge for a baby in arms?"
