As described in a film magazine review,[2] Tom Parker's wife Laura, concerned because he does not devote enough time to her, narrowly escapes from being involved in a love affair with the wealthy Martin Sheldon. Martin's daughter Ruth, married to the young lawyer Howard Metcliffe, is dissatisfied with her marriage and plans an elopement with the Count Lorenz, who is a crook. When Ruth's automobile is involved in an accident and she is injured, she is brought to the nearest domicile, which is Laura's house. Ruth's father Martin comes, and is thunderstruck when he finds Laura there. After some discussions and reconsiderations, the domestic affairs are resolved all around for the two marriages.
