Philip D'Arcy (
William Eugene), the financial backer of a Broadway show offers to star Ruth Montaige (
Pauline Garon), in the show but he has another reason for doing so. But Ruth, dumb but pure, agrees to marry him after one year, figuring she will be a star and and can goodbye to the lustful money-man. Then true romance comes along and she falls in love with true-and-equally-pure Edwin Edinburh (
Allan Simpson). This riles her standby lover to the point that, with the help of a jealous girl in the show's cast, manages to get poor Ruth on a deserted yacht with Edwin, hoping the shame and scandal will ruin her budding career.
