Synopsis
John Annixter, a northern corporation lawyer with a stern sense of justice, marries Kathleen, a southern belle and a habitual coquette. Immersed in his work, Annixter allows his wife to pursue a social life under the escort of his friends. Barry Clive, an architect, becomes infatuated with her and mistakes her flirting for genuine passion; Annixter returns home unexpectedly, witnesses Clive embracing his wife, and without hearing any explanation obtains a divorce from Kathleen, declaring her actions to be "grand larceny." She marries Clive but is constantly unhappy because of his jealousy. At a concert, she encounters her first husband, and when the two men develop an argument, Kathleen declares that she will have neither of them, thus asserting her independence.
