She attempts to convince her father of her success in her first try at baking and, as the film progresses, more and more people for various reasons eat some of her biscuits. The final scene shows a group of ill people pointing menacingly at the cook who insists that they partake again of her culinary mishap.Language:SilentNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
