Plot

Christine is the daughter of the owner of a menagerie. She does not fear Nero, a lion grumpy with everyone, who is always docile and kind to her. She manages to make him do the most difficult exercises, enters the cage without fear, cuddles him like a kitten and he lets her do everything. One day, however, Christine meets Basil McDermott who begins to court her until he becomes engaged to her. Basil dislikes the lion and Nero dislikes the newcomer, even though he is forced to accept him as his master. On the day of the wedding, Christine wants to go greet her lion and enter the cage. Basil goes to look for her to bring her back among the guests, but she asks him to leave her alone to say goodbye to Nero. When Basil returns, he finds his wife lying dead between Nero's paws.
