Rokeby, a respected bank president, has a past as a thief, which Harvey soon discovers with the services of ex-detective Donavan. His past exposed, Rokeby flees in disgrace, thus forcing Marie to recognize Harvey's villainy. While searching for Rokeby, Marie is led into a trap by Harvey and Donavan from which she is rescued by Rokeby. Learning that his past misdeeds have been pardoned by the governor, Rokeby returns to his post with Marie as his wife.
