George Garfield, star reporter, accompanies Mildred Latham to the Twentieth National Bank to visit her father, Horace Latham, the president. He discovers the directors' room is full of excited men and at once "scents a story." Through a ruse, he gets the president's secretary out of the room and then listens at the keyhole of the door, learning that the bank is trembling on the verge of failure. An unfortunate sneeze betrays his presence. Latham rushes in, captures Garfield and then to prevent the publication of the story, locks him up in an ante-room. Garfield telephones to Mildred of his incarceration a moment before the instrument is torn out. She hurries to the bank and learns the details from the private secretary, and sides with her sweetheart against her father. From the sidewalk she flashes a reflection into the ante-room with the aid of a small mirror. Garfield has written the story and drops his notebook out of the window, and she carries it to the office of the "Express," where its contents causes much excitement. Garfield falls asleep and in his dream observes a run on the bank. Then follow a number of tragedies due to the "scoop" concerning the bank. Awakened by a cheer from the directors' room, he learns that enough currency has been brought into the building to save the bank if there is no publicity in the matter; so he volunteers to go to the newspaper office and suppress the news. He appeals to the managing editor to "kill" the story, but he refuses and the two men quarrel. Field, the editor, is seized with a fit and becomes unconscious. Garfield sees an opportunity. Pretending to be the managing editor, he picks up the telephone and orders "that story killed at once," and is obeyed. At dawn, the bank directors who have waited out all the night, hear the good news that the bank is saved. Then Garfield stumbles in and drops into a chair, sobbing, "I have betrayed my profession," but Mildred enters and consoles him.
