Based upon the play by Alice Leal Pollock and Rita Weiman, Anne Gray (Ruth Clifford) is saved from a fake marriage to scapegrace Robert Gordon (W.E. Lawrence) by the arrival of millionaire Lagdon Van Kreel (Charles Clary). Later, as a reporter sent to cover a sensational society divorce, she finds that Van Kreel's wife intends to sue him, naming her (Anne) as corespondent. John Manning (Niles Welch), managing editor of the paper, saves Anne and silences the wife."
