"The former warden of the state prison has a theory that a criminal under proper environment can be completely cured. He gains the consent of the governor of the state to try his experiment on the daughter of a notorious gangster Lassen, the girl has been picked up unconscious in trying to escape from the police. When she recovers he leads her to believe that the memories of her past are part of her feverish imagination. Then his son falls in love with the girl, and it works out into a beautiful love story."
