Synopsis

Middle aged Mrs. Livingston Baldwin Crane (Edna May Oliver) is selected to serve on a jury. The case is the murder trial of ex-showgirl Yvette Gordon (Jill Esmond), accused of killing her rich elderly husband. Throughout the trial Mrs. Crane is outspoken but is able to ask the witnesses candid and important questions. At the end of the trial, Mrs. Crane casts the sole “not guilty” vote, causing a discussion. After lots of convincing and several votes, the count is ten not guilty to two guilty. During the deliberations, the wealthy Mrs. Crane secretly hires a detective agency to further investigate the case. They prove that Chauncy, Mr. Crane's nephew, paid the maid, Mrs. Snow, to lie under oath so Chauncy could inherit his uncle's entire estate.

Eccentric scientist Hunter Hawk (Alan Mowbray) nearly blows himself up during an experiment. When he comes to, he finds that he is successful at last: he has created a ring that can turn living creatures into statues as well as bring statues to life. After testing the device on his dog, he makes statues of his disagreeable family; only his favorite niece, Daphne (Peggy Shannon), is spared. Hawk and Daphne celebrate the petrification of their relatives with a bottle of wine after which Daphne goes off to meet her boyfriend Cyril (Douglas Fowley). Hawk takes a drunken stroll through the cornfield where he encounters the gardener, Old Man Turner (Ferdinand Gottschalk), who turns out to be a leprechaun. Turner takes Hawk home to meet his daughter, Meg (Florine McKinney), and the two hit it off. They embark on a spree, turning other disagreeable people into statues left and right. At the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Hawk brings statues of Greek gods to life. Hawk and Meg take the gods on a whirlwind tour of the modern world embodied by Manhattan resulting in more mayhem, the disillusionment of the gods, and Hawk's eventual weariness with what he has wrought. Since he and Meg wish to be together, and concluding that he is certain to be locked up as a madman, he turns the ring on Meg and himself. Hawk then awakens in an ambulance and discovers that the entire evening was the result of head injuries sustained in the explosion at the beginning of the story.
