Helen goes to stay at the hotel, where she attracts great attention. Her husband attacks her in the "guise of a footpad one day when Kenyon is near, and she is "saved" by the widower, whose acquaintance, thus formed, she proceeds to cultivate. The Kenyons invite her to spend a week at their home. She communicates with Dick and admits him to the house late at night. He burglarizes the safe in which the diamonds are kept, and they make their getaway. A slight noise awakens Kenyon, and he rushes down to find the jewel case gone. His daughter and her sweetheart, his secretary, enter and astonish him by producing the jewels from a hiding place. They had suspected Helen and, removing the diamonds from the ease, substituted two pendants from an electrolier. The case being locked, Willard is unable to open it until he and his wife reach home.
