Ett ödesdigert inkognito (1920)

The celebrated movie star Georg Wilck has tired of constantly standing at the center of the admirers' attention and travels incognito to the seaside resort Viken to be in peace. He takes in the name of Fred Palmer, a name that belongs to a schoolmate whom he now believes has died in the United States. In fact, however, the little-honorable Palmer has returned to Sweden and is just about to swindle the young ladies on an estate near Viken. Under his invented name, Georg Wilck becomes acquainted with the beautiful Magda, and soon love arises between them. The real Fred Palmer finds reason to head over heels leave the estate he has haunted, because his abandoned and vengeful wife has picked up the trail on him. The three estate owner's daughters are, of course, disappointed and furious about having been deceived, but are told that Fred Palmer is actually staying at the seaside resort. They travel there and warn the poor Magda of her love with the consequence that she packs to go on her way. Georg Wilck has to reveal his true identity to resolve the situation with Magda. In this case, Magda's mother in particular becomes very delighted and Wilck is happily reunited with his beloved.
