Synopsis
Wealthy society girl Ardita Farnam is held up in her roadster by two thugs and is rescued by Nevkova, a Russian in search of a rich wife, with whom she falls in love against her uncle's wishes. When Uncle John proposes a yachting trip to visit Colonel Moreland and his son, Toby, she refuses to go; and when a stranger and six Negroes take possession of the yacht, she is furious and bargains with the crew to overpower their leader and return to town. Following the injured man ashore, she discovers that it is all a plot by her uncle to save her from the Russian; and as Toby Moreland, the stranger, is more to her taste, she is more than satisfied.
