She had determined to go straight, but the underworld folks with whom, before her going up, she had rendered service not easily replaced, wanted her back. Her day of release was chalked by the boss of the den which had been her hangout, and his crooks were there to extend the glad hand. These worthies, nosing as friends to the newly liberated, lifted the precious dollars needed for the new start, and the late jailbird found herself under their guidance among her old cronies. The "go straight notion" wasn't entirely killed and they found she had lost her former congeniality. Over strenuous efforts on the part of the boss to revive the old spirit drove her to an attempt to end it all. At this point the hero entered, saved her, persuaded her to live a little longer, and won her heart. She stepped blithely forth to start anew, but met up with the underworld folks again and strong arm methods convinced her of the good policy of joining their operations. She served as an outpost to their burglar jobs with good success, until at a millionaire's home where the haul of the season was due for a gathering, she met up with a mouse. This drove her unceremoniously into the privacy of the home, where she found she was aiding in the sacking of the house of her hero. She turned on her pals, protected the sick mother, returned the family jewels, and then stepped out of his life forever, but being the last one out ran into the lately aroused cops, her exit being badly marred by her efforts to gain headway on the flatfoot hot step of the protectors of peace.
