Love, Pepper and Sweets is a 1915 American silent comedy film featuring Bobby Burns & Walter Stull.
Plot
Jabbs is the star boarder and favorite of Betty, the landlady, while Pokes and Runt, two other boarders, always suffer the worst end of things. After a very scant breakfast Pokes and Jabbs take a walk through the park when Ethel, some queen, attracts their attention. An acquaintance is soon formed, but, as usual, Jabbs spoils their happiness by passing along and taking Ethel away. She invites Jabbs into her house and he accepts the invitation. The indignant Pokes and Runt, who have been following, decide to bombard the house. Their bombardment is unsuccessful, however, and the two conspirators are treated to a bath of milk and milk bottles for their pains. Jabbs decides to play a joke on them and has Ethel invite them to call upon her that afternoon at the same hour, but neither knows that the other has been invited. Overjoyed, they prepare for the call, one with candy and the other with a bouquet of flowers. Jabbs prepares to receive them. The result of his preparations are that the candy and flowers are smeared with pepper, which is the cause of Ethel's fainting. Jabbs, disguised as her father, follows them with a pistol and their affections are cooled by a refreshing ducking in the lake.—Moving Picture World synopsis
