The widow McGee, a neighbor on the floor above, frequently drops in to help tidy up or to bring him a pot of jam or some little present. Grogan sees her designs, but though he appreciates her good qualities, he has been too long used to his freedom to give it up. A gang of blackmailers and kidnappers, headed by one Phil Covington, abduct millionaire Ligard's little daughter Pearl from the park. Fearing detection, they plan to flee with the child to Chicago. While Covington goes off with Burke to put their purpose in execution, they leave Pearl in charge of Sanford--who yields to his besetting weakness and gets drunk. Pearl is frightened and runs away from him and is picked up by the good-natured Grogan, who takes her to his home, where with Mrs. McGee's help he takes care of her, which brings the two adults closer together. The kidnappers find out where she is and try to take her from Grogan, who defends her; then Ligand and the detectives arrive. Ligard thanks Grogan for his kindness and Pearl promises to come to see him. Left alone, he feels the loss of the child. Mrs. McGee makes him a leap-year sort of proposal and he decides he will marry her and they will spend the evening of life together. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
