Mrs Bixby and the Detective caper ends in loss
A wary widow, Mrs. Bixby, fends off burglars with warnings and a clever but flawed protection scheme. A slick detective arrives, charms her, and steals silverware, clothing, and keepsakes, leaving her stunned on the step. The con comes apart as the thief departs with his badge, and Mrs. Bixby faces ruin and despair.
