After their marriage he continues his work as orchestra leader, which leaves her alone throughout the long evenings. It is at this time she is approached by her husband's dearest friend and told of the gay life she is missing. After several evenings she becomes infatuated with him and yields to his protestations of love. Her husband finally arranges for her appearance on the stage, he having trained her until she has become a wonderful artist on the violin. The false friend meets her behind the scenes and goes to her dressing room. The husband goes behind to see his wife and finds her in the arms of her lover, his own treacherous friend. The wife returns home, arriving shortly before her husband. By the time he has staggered home, his mind has turned and he is a raving maniac. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
