Engrossed in his work, be forgets all about her and she is brought home by Count Vladimer Bredowski, whom she has met at the ball. After this, the Count becomes a regular caller at the Lawrence's and often goes out riding or driving with Mrs. Lawrence when her husband is too busy to accompany her. The young woman becomes extremely piqued with her husband and contrasts his actions with the ever willingness of the Count to oblige her. One day, coming home from a gallop through the park, the Count attempts to embrace Mrs. Lawrence and begs her to fly with him and let him give her the love she desires. Fearing herself, she goes to her husband and asks him to take her to Europe, but he replies that he has too much to do and cannot spare the time. Enraged at what she considers his neglect, Mrs. Lawrence goes to the telephone, and, calling up the Count, tells him that she will join him at once. When, having arrived at the Count's apartment, he attempts to take her in his arms, she realizes what she is doing and tries to get away from him. He will not let her go, however, but bars the way to the door. Just then, Henry, having suspected where his wife has gone, hammers at the door for admittance. Mrs. Lawrence makes her escape by jumping out of the window to the ground, and, tailing her husband's taxi, she returns at once to her home. Henry is amazed when he sees that his wife is not in the room, but, seeing her glove there and noticing the open window, he guesses what has happened. After soundly thrashing the Count, he returns to his home and hears the whole story from his wife, who asks him to set her free. His love for his wife surges back to his heart and be begs her to stay, promising that he will make up for all his neglect of the past. She readily consents, happy to have awakened again the tender passion in his breast. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
