In Atlantic City, they arrive at the humble efficiency hotel room Mary has rented. Dick is not impressed, and would prefer they stay in a fancier hotel. An argument ensues, ending with Dick storming out, leaving Mary alone. While waiting for Dick's return, a jewel thief, Red Dugan (Maurice Black), arrives at the hotel room, with a policeman, Sergeant Daly (Paul Hurst) in hot pursuit. Desperate, Dugan secretes a stolen necklace in Mary's purse, before being shot and killed by Daly, who is himself wounded in the gun battle. A chambermaid at the hotel, Clara Muldoon (Natalie Moorhead), suspects that the jewels have been passed to Mary. The police pick up Mary, Dick and Clara, but Mary is released. Attempting to flee from both Dick and the police, Mary seeks a job as a cook under an assumed name at the home of the wealthy bachelor, George Blaine (Lloyd Hughes). While there, a mutual attraction begins to develop between Mary and George. Clara, and the rest of the thieves' gang, trace Mary to Blaine's house, and abduct her while they recover the stolen jewels. The gang takes Mary to a fake hospital, where they hold her against her will. Blaine tracks Mary down and rescues her, just before the police arrive to arrest the jewel thieves. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Runaway Bride (film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
