Usually it is the other way. The man finds his sweetheart apparently false to him, and in his blind anger refuses to trust her. This time "Boots," in her own tearful resentment, refuses to trust the man who she believes, has been false to her. "So," says Dorothy Gish, "it makes little difference which side of the fence the clover is on, the other side looks different anyway."
