Synopsis
Yvonne, a girl whose father was electrocuted when she was a child, is brought up by her mother to be a crook and to avenge her father's death by living outside the law. She falls in love with "Red," her partner in crime. Fearing that the electric chair will separate them, she tries to make him reform. Failing this, she shoots him in the shoulder when he tries to be included in a bank robbery. They give themselves up to pay the penalty and to start life anew without the constant fear of apprehension by the law.

Trivia
A surviving script of the film has some scenes of an electric chair, but all are X'd out, suggesting that they were not used.
Clara Bow and Richard Arlen both suffered minor injuries from richocheting bullets. (Special effects "squibs" had not yet been invented, so marksmen would really shoot near the actors.)
This film is presumed lost. Please check your attic.
