Synopsis

Judith Wingate has married for wealth, but desires love, while her friend Marion Gregory has married for love, but longs for wealth. Chester Wingate refuses to grant Judith a divorce, even though he is having an affair and Judith has taken wealthy Oliver Sloan for a lover. Marion grows impatient with her husband, inventor Hugh Gregory, who promises her wealth at the completion of his submarine invention for the United States government. Judith invites Marion for a weekend sojourn, with the intention of entrapping Chester with Marion. When Marion rejects Chester's advances, Oliver attempts to win her favor. Judith enters Marion's room hoping to expose her husband, but finds instead her lover in a compromising position. Hugh believes that Marion has been unfaithful, and the success of his invention is little consolation until minister Robert Calvert proves Marion's innocence. Marion returns to the man she married for love with a new appreciation of him, and with a new view of the idle rich.
