Willie is struck by the speeding automobile of Tom Hardy. Hardy rides out of sight and Janet is assisted into a passing auto and driven home. Hardy's conscience refuses to give him any peace and he turns back, only to find that the victim has disappeared. Following the directions of a bystander he arrives at Janet's home. He makes himself known to Janet and tries to excuse his conduct, but she, furious at his carelessness, drives him from her house. Dr. Peters now arrives and after examining Willie, announces that his spine has been injured. Some time later Hardy is stricken with a violent fever, and Dr. Peters, who happens to be his physician, finding the nurse worn out, phones for Janet. Janet, not knowing who the patient is, leaves little Willie, arid going to the patient's bedside, she finds herself face to face with Hardy. Dr. Peters' parting words were, "One mistake would be fatal." Hardy, who is delirious because of his high fever and has not recognized her, now calls feebly for water. The nurse obeys the call. But Hardy becomes worse every moment and she realizes that the crisis is at hand. Hardy passes the crisis safely, recognizes Janet and falls into a peaceful slumber. The reaction now sets in as Janet sees that Hardy is safe, and she falls fainting beside her patient, where Dr. Peters finds her. During his convalescence, Hardy falls desperately in love with his nurse, but Janet, remembering her little lame brother at home, will not listen to him. Janet's joy at seeing him walk without his crutch is too great and she tells Hardy of Willie's cure. Hardy again proposes and now that the obstacle is removed, Janet realizes that she also loves him.
