Synopsis
In Budapest Stephan Karpath is an egotistical but celebrated stage actor, whose lover Zita Marishka is an aspiring actress. When she is cast alongside him in a play he jealously has her fired. In a huff she departs for New York City, but he accompanies her and they are married on the ship going over. However, in American nobody has heard of Stephan and he finds it difficult to find work. His wife hits on the idea of passing herself off as a famous, but unmarried, Russian actress and is cast in the lead of a Broadway play. She manages to get Stephan work playing opposite her, but to his chagrin she is pursued romantically by several men including the producer and the playwright Larry Kenyon. When it dawns on Stephan that she really loves Larry, in whose work she has become a great actress, he pretends to return to Budapest but really goes to North Dakota.
