Synopsis

While trying to warn her sweetheart Jimmie that the police are about to arrest him, Anne is caught in a raid and sentenced to prison by Judge Marcus. After her release, she plans to extract her own brand of justice from the judge. Anne contrives to become the private secretary to Mrs. Marcus, and when the judge is nominated for governor, the girl conspires with his political enemies to frame him in a compromising situation. However, when the time arrives for the judge's alleged infidelity, Anne discovers that she has fallen in love with him and pushes the judge from her arms just as the spies and Mrs. Marcus enter the room. Jimmie, recently released from jail, then finds her and although she no longer loves him, Anne goes with Jimmie, sacrificing herself for the judge.
