editAs described in a film magazine review,[5] Amos Mason ruthlessly takes the savings of his fiancée Ann Sherman and then casts her aside when he succeeds in his scheme in New York City to make a fortune rapidly. He causes Ann to be discharged when she finds a position with the Graves family. Amos becomes involved in a real estate business which grows quickly. He employs James Warren to build his mansion. James has married Ann, who tells her husband of the trickery of Amos. Amos and Shirley Graves have married, and a child is born to them. However, Shirley does not love Amos, and cares instead for Douglas White. After the child is born, Amos' trickery is found out and he is sent to prison.
