Synopsis
When wealthy socialite Dick Cunningham insists that prominent actress Nancy Bradshaw give up her career to marry him, she reluctantly consents. Several years pass, Nancy bears a child, and Dick becomes attracted to Lila Grant, Nancy's theatrical successor. When Dick accompanies Lila to Mexico, Nancy replaces her on stage. Upon his return, Dick upbraids Nancy for reneging on her promise to leave the theater, but Nancy turns the tables by confronting him with his betrayal. They agree upon a divorce and Nancy is able to retain her child and her career.
