The mother finds there is but little left to live upon, and decides that the only thing to do is to get her daughter married off to the wealthiest man she can find. She compels Betty to remain in the background and when callers ask who she is, pretends that Betty is only a servant. Among the celebrities whom the mother endeavors to attract for Irma is a young and successful composer, Maurice Beaumont, and she is at last able to induce him to accept an invitation to her home. Beaumont is writing an opera and is anxious to find a woman to sing the premier role. The mother throws Irma at his head, but he, apparently, does not see her. One night in his room, he hears a woman's most wonderful voice. He calls his hostess and asks to know who among her household has such a wonderful voice. The mother knows that he has heard Betty, but she is quick to see the importance of the incident and declares it was Irma, her daughter, that he heard. Beaumont then asks that Irma sing for him. The mother arranges to have Betty, who has seen the young musician and worshiped him from afar, sing in such a way that Beaumont will think it is Irma. Beaumont is fooled when he hears the voice, apparently coming from behind a screen, and later Irma steps forth. He embraces her in his excess of joy at such a beautiful voice. Later, however, Beaumont learns the truth and that it was Betty all the time. He denounces Irma and her mother for their intended deception and folds the happy Betty to his breast.
