Three college boys graduate. One is in love with a girl whose mother and father have domestic difficulties. They go to court and are divorced; when the father is refused his request for his daughter, he kidnaps her and takes her to another state, where he becomes a great political factor. Bill, who is in love with the girl, traces her with his two companions' help. They steal her away, but in the process his hand is burned with a poker, and the father uses that as a means of identification in tracing him. He goes to the house where Bill is hiding and one of Bill's pals, to avoid his arrest, burns his own hand with a poker. Father comes in, cannot identify Bill's pal, and leaves, realizing that he cannot have his daughter.
