Elope If You Must (1922)

Nancy Moore and Jazz Hennessy, two members of a theatrical troupe, are stranded in a small town and board the train for the city. En route Nancy meets Mr. Magruder, who offers her $10,000 if she will prevent his daughter Elizabeth from marrying Willie Weems and bring about her marriage to Warren Holt. While engaged as a maid in his home, Nancy overhears Elizabeth's plans to elope with Willie. Jazz abducts Willie in his car and leaves him in the country, but the irrepressible Willie returns. Not until he is locked in the attic are the barnstormers able to get Elizabeth and Holt together for a marriage ceremony.
