The film starred William Garwood, Marguerite Snow as The Buddhist Priestess, Marie Eline and Florence La Badie.

She wanders through the countryside on her own, arriving at the same temple shortly after the loss of the idol has been discovered by a Buddhist priest, who has rushed out to summon the locals.

He learns he has shot one of the temple's sacred pigeons, which he finds being carefully tended by the beautiful young Buddhist priestess.

The priestess and naval officer, now fugitives, take refuge from the angry mob in the temple, from where they dispatch the carrier pigeon to the ship with a message requesting help.

A group of navy men receive the message, and reach the temple in time to rescue their officer and his future bride, and they presumably live happily ever after.
