„The Bank – (Two Reels) – Essanay – August 19. – Charles Chaplin is employed as a janitor in a bank, when he falls
in love with the stenographer. He finds a necktie
with a note which reads ,To Charlie.‘ He buys a bouquet of flowers
and puts it on the stenographer‘s desk. The cashier,
whose name is Charlie, receives the necktie and thanks
the stenographer, who in turn thanks him for the
flowers. When she learns that they are from the janitor she
throws them into the waste basket. Charlie sees this
and goes to the basement, where he falls asleep and dreams
that an attempt to hold up the bank is made and after
capturing the robbers the president of the bank showers
Chaplin with praises and the girl throws herself into
his arms. Charlie wakes up to find himself hugging and
kissing a mop.“
