Synopsis
Because Amy Fortesque's dying grandfather advises her to get all the joys out of life, she marries Dick Gaylord because he is funny, rather than Walter Melrose, a staid young lawyer who loves her. Gaylord turns out to be a heavy drinker who treats his wife poorly. He tricks Melrose into a meeting in Amy's room, and in a drunken state, shoots him. Amy seizes the gun and kills Gaylord, but she eventually is found innocent of the crime and seeks happiness with Melrose.

Notes
A pre-release trade article states that the film is based on the novel The Gay Miss Fortesque by Eugene B. Lewis. No evidence of the existence of such a novel, however, has been discovered.
