The Show is a 1927 American silent drama film directed by Tod Browning, based upon Charles Tenney Jackson's 1910 novel The Day of Souls.

He also participates in one of the acts; his former girlfriend Salome (Renée Adorée) dances before Herod in exchange for the head of "Jokanaan".

Salome wants to get back together with Robin, but he has his sights set on Lena (Gertrude Short), the daughter of a well-off sheep merchant.

She trustingly shows him the substantial amount of money she had been holding for her father; when Robin ascertains that she has no brothers and that she has many more sheep, he becomes very interested.

The Greek first tries to rid himself of his romantic rival by taking the place of the "executioner" and using a real sword to lop off Robin's head, but Salome sees through his disguise and stops him.

An official calls on Salome to inform her that she can claim her brother's possessions at the prison; Robin then realizes that the old man was her father.
