She meets Grover (Bushman), an American millionaire who is a reformer and making a study of crime.

She plays the game to the extent of preparing for the ceremony, but her better self comes to the fore when she realizes the depth of the American's love and the duplicity of her sweetheart who chose the necklace in preference to her.
