While staying at a mountain resort, Kenneth Scott ( Emory Johnson ) falls in love with an older woman, Marie Beauchamp ( Gretchen Lederer ) who callously amuses herself with him. When she deserts him to open a roadhouse, he sadly leaves the mountains and, in the company of an old wandering poet named "Doc" Podden ( Harry Holden ), and travels to a small village in the woods. There he meets and soon falls deeply in love with Daphne Sawyer ( Ella Hall ), the storekeeper's daughter. But the beautiful Daphne also is loved by Louis Bracchi ( E. A. Warren ), and Kenneth finally saves her from his forced attentions. In the end, Kenneth has the last laugh when he learns that his new true love is the younger sister of Marie, the woman who abandoned him.
