After leaving her baby at the door of a hospital she meets David, the author of her misfortune. It is a case of starvation or the "easiest way." She chooses the "easiest way." After eighteen years she again shows up, a social outcast and a tool for David's black profession. David has his eye upon a mere slip of a girl who works in a department store. He attempts to lure her to his resort, but fails. He then turns the case over to Lillian. Dorothy needs money for clothes. Lillian offers her the position and she accompanies the older woman to David's resort. Wallace, Dorothy's sweetheart, waits for her outside the house. Once inside the resort Dorothy is beautifully gowned. While changing her dress she takes a locket from her neck and lays it aside. Lillian finds it. Dorothy is her daughter. All the mother instinct and realization of her actions awaken in Lillian. She saves her daughter from David and her own fate and turns her over to Wallace. David is sent to prison. Lillian dies, despised and shunned, and Dorothy never knows that the woman who delivered her to evil and then saved her was her mother. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
