Synopsis

Following her schooling in Paris, Norma Andrews returns home with the wealthy Schuylers, unaware that Frank, her father, is in prison on a grand larceny charge. She is accompanied by Harry Lyle, her father's underworld confederate, to the Schuyler residence in Long Island, where he soon learns the location and combination of the safe. On the day of his release, Andrews meets Phil Schuyler and Norma, who have become engaged. Lyle brings Andrews a jeweled pendant for Norma's wedding present; later, when two detectives arrive in search of the thieves, Lyle allows himself to be arrested to avoid disgracing Andrews. Phil and Norma are happily united.
