- Vera Souroff, a young Russian girl, is seized on the street and dragged into a room where three officers of the Czar's guard have been dining. The lights are turned out and the girl is outraged. The crime is brought to the attention of the Czar. Vera cannot tell which of the three officers is the guilty man. The Czar orders Count Nicho, the eldest of the three officers, to marry the girl, and makes them all turn over their fortunes to her. They are then sent to prison. The revolution breaks out. Vera saves her husband at the risk of her own life, as she wishes to wring from him the name of the man that violated her. Nicho, now honestly in love with his wife, admits that he was her assaulter, and the couple clasp each other in a fervent embrace.—Moving Picture World synopsis
- Betrothed to young radical Boris Litofsky, Vera Souroff is attacked by three officers of the Czar and raped by one of them in the darkened apartment of a Petrograd restaurant. The Czar orders one of the offending officers, Count Nicho, to marry Vera, although the officers have sworn to one another never to reveal the identity of the chief attacker; after the forced marriage, Count Nicho declares that Vera will never be assured that she married the right officer. At the outbreak of the Bolshevik revolution, Vera saves her husband's life and demands as repayment the name of the man who molested her. Filled with remorse, Nicho confesses that he was her principal assailant, and the two embrace.—Pamela Short
