Comic characterization and dialogue.
Both the young man and Flint are given to overemphasis and mugging, but in all likelihood that is done advisedly, and if critics don't like it the audience does.
Douglas Flint and Co. gave a sketch in which Flint's whimsical characterization of an elderly parent of the prosperous obese type was the high spot The plot is concerned with a male secretary who takes his employer (the old gent) Into his confidence concerning his romancer' The old guy advises him what to do——elope, etc. It turns out that the girl is his own daughter. By no means a sensational thought, but just right for the house, who hung on every line.
