The murdered man attempts to cheat Ebenezer Boyce, the President of Boyce Automatic Pistol Works, and the aged man dies from the shock. His two sons swear to avenge their father's death, and when the schemer, Martin, is found with a bullet through his heart both boys think the other fired the shot. Two more characters are implicated and the air is full of suspicion until it turns out that Martin accidentally shot himself.
