Sally Clayton commits suicide when she is betrayed by Steven Saunders, and the tragedy kills her mother. Determined to revenge them, Janis Clayton becomes Saunders' personal secretary and encourages his attentions when he sends his wife to Europe aboard a ship directed by him to take a dangerous course. During a supper at his home, Janis reveals her plan to ruin him. He then attempts to kill her but is shot by a Bohemian artist whose wife and child have gone down with the ship. Janis becomes an outcast until she finds refuge in a clergyman's home and is reunited with her former lover, Bud.

Notes
A revised version, reviewed in Motion Picture News (30 July 1921), was retitled and edited by Katherine Hilliker and, according to this source, released by Paramount. "Miss Hilliker, in remoulding the picture, has supplied logical reasons for previously shallow spots ... and made the photoplay a most interesting drama."
