Plot Summary

Unable to abide her self-righteous husband, Nadine Gathway leaves home and drops out of sight for 20 years. When Mr. Gathway dies, he leaves his huge fortune to his daughter, Joyce, on the condition that she never become involved in scandal. Joyce becomes interested in Larry Fay, whose wife sues her for alienation of affections. In Paris, Nadine, who has become the Countess de Tauro, hears of the scandal and returns to the United States, intent on helping the daughter she once deserted. Nadine involves Mrs. Fay in a wild and compromising party and "blackmails" her into withdrawing her suit. Nadine then returns to her understanding husband, and Joyce awaits Larry, who is divorcing his wife. Written by Pamela Short
