Cards furnish them with their principal source of income. Helen Rowe, wife of a wealthy young businessman, is their prey at the time the story opens. She is delighted with them as friends and participates in their games, winning, as the beginner always does. Her luck changes, however, and she begins signing I.O.U. slips for Judson. She gets in deeper than she can afford and becomes desperate. Her husband purchases an expensive piece of jewelry for her. It contains an unusually large diamond. A new maid is employed. She is the accomplice of another crook, who places her in the house for the purpose of robbery. She notes the diamond piece and the wall safe in which it is kept. One night the safe is broken and the maid disappears. Mrs. Rowe is relieved. She had purchased a paste imitation of the diamond and placed it in the safe. Her husband thinks the jewelry stolen. She goes to Judson with the real one and offers it to him in payment. He suggests there are other ways of paying. Gunther, a detective, who found one of the I.O.U. slips, comes in to save her. He recognizes Judson as wanted for several other crimes. He lets the criminal go, takes the diamond piece and returns it to Mr. and Mrs. Rowe, keeping the latter's escapade secret from her husband. But Mrs. Rowe has learned her lesson. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
