When Fortuna Donnelly gets a position as an usher at the Halcyon Theater, manager Eddie Lintner becomes romantically interested in her and is jealous that she prefers wealthy Englishman Owen Pauncefort. Fortuna dines with Pauncefort at his home, where he makes sexual advances toward her. He apologizes and confides that he is trying to locate his wife, who has separated from him following a quarrel. By chance, Mrs. Pauncefort attends the theater and Fortuna recognizes her from the photograph. Fortuna phones Pauncefort and arranges a seat for him next to his wife. The squabbling couple are reunited, and Fortuna finds happiness with Eddie.
