Jack Frobisher's wife, Lady Althea, an obsessive, indebted bridge player, is in love with an English society rake who tells her that her husband had killed a man in America and is wanted by the police. Lady Althea does not know that the man who told the rake about the murder is actually the guilty one. Lady Althea finally is reconciled to her husband when the American sheriff comes to arrest him and it is discovered that the murdered man had revealed the true name of his murderer before he died. In the end, she resolves to give up her rakish lover and stay away from gambling at bridge forever.
