At the party the doctor is called away on an important case to the hospital. But before he goes he asks Norton to take Myra home. In the meanwhile Jim Corey, who has been a failure in life, is desperate that night. He decides to steal to keep alive and happens to select the Randall home for the job. He enters the house and makes his way about the upper stories looking for valuables. By accident he gets into the nursery and seeing the Randalls' little child sleeping, says to himself that he would be a dog to take the child's trinkets. As Jim is about to leave Myra and Norton come home. The thief hastily hides and the sight he sees makes his blood boil within him. Norton tries to force his attentions upon Myra and at last Jim can restrain himself no longer. Just as he is downing Norton the doctor comes in. When Myra tells him how she has been saved by Jim, the doctor offers to reward him, but Jim says that he is more than paid by the incentive he received to go straight. The picture ends as Jim Corey is striding out into the night. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
