This Selig "human interest" drama begins as a married couple head to Reno to get a divorce. Lost in the shuffle is the couple's young son, who can't understand why mommy and daddy are so mad at each other. On his own volition, the boy makes the arduous cross-country journey to Reno, hoping to bring about a reconciliation. His parents are so touched by his diligence and devotion that they agree to give their marriage one more chance. Already a tad unbelievable to begin with, Settled Out of Court was further hampered by an outrageous finale.
