While traveling in England, American lawyer John Steele falls in love and marries burlesque star Maizie Bell. After interrupting a wild party given by Maizie, John is disillusioned and returns to America. His emotional wounds heal through the help of Hester Blaine, the niece of his law partner Judge Mason. When John reads a newspaper account of Maizie's death in a railroad accident, he marries Hester and they have a son. The death report proves to be false, and Maizie turns up, accompanied by her supposed stepfather Harlon, a handicapped blackmailer, and Yoshida, his Japanese valet. John's bigamy causes Hester to become seriously ill. Maizie's sympathy for John's son causes her to repent, however, and she confesses that she is really the bigamist, having been Harlon's wife all along. Maizie is shot and killed by Harlon, who in turn falls off a cliff and dies. The Steele family is happy once again.
