The film stars Fred Stone, Fanny Midgley, Charles McHugh, Rhea Mitchell, Sylvia Ashton, Philo McCullough, and Winifred Greenwood.

[1][2] As described in a film magazine,[3] ironworker Chuck McCarthy (Stone) loves Molly O'Connors (Greenwood), a stenographer for the Filmcraft Studio.

He rescues a pet monkey belonging to Bijou Lamour (Rhea Mitchell), the leading lady of the company, and is signed to "double" for her in a skating scene.

Caruthers is lionized for his bravery while Chuck is nursed back to health by Molly, and he decides to give up his screen career.
