Mr. Wayne, one of Guy's business associates, invites him to a dinner party at his home. There Guy meets and falls in love with Lois Herrington. a young society girl with a very ambitious mother and a parasite of a brother. Lois really likes and admires Guy, but feels herself above him. After the wedding she ignores Guy and she and her family use him as a good thing, and run up scandalous bills, which he pays without a word. After a while, however, Guy becomes tired of his position in his own house and his pride and self-respect assert itself. He tells Lois he is leaving for the west to remain there permanently, and asks her how soon she can be ready to accompany him. She laughs at him. He demands that she remain at home that night and read to him. She refuses. He finally ties her into a chair where she remains from one evening until the next day at noon before she gives in. He finally conquers her, however, and her old love reasserts itself. As he is about to leave for the west, she comes to him and asks him if he thinks he will be able to find a house for them in the west. They are happily reconciled and decide to leave Lois's mother and brother in the east when they go west. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
