A new view of the workings of the human conscience is given in this picture by Earle Foxe in the part of a trusted employee who robs his fatherly benefactor, who is played by Geo. W. Middleton. There is much more than this in it; for it also portrays the interacting forces that are sure to find a path, sooner or later, leading to the criminal. It is in this instance found in the repetition of a pet parrot of the figures of the "combination of the safe." The thief had learned them by heart, out loud, and the parrot repeated them at a critical moment. It interests deeply and instructs in a measure, but it leaves the spectator's heart cold. It is, in truth, a very clever piece of work, Stewart Holmes plays the detective, A safe offering. - The Moving Picture World, October 26, 1912
