Mona and Mary set out to teach him a lesson. Mona succeeds in becoming acquainted with him and declares that she is a Corsican living with her younger sister. Harrasford calls on Mona, and his fickle affections lead him into the trap of showing too much attention to Mary. A number of thrilling events keep Harrasford in a maze of excitement between the two girls, who, as temperamental Corsicans, are intense in love and hate. Finally Harrasford plans to flee with Mary and arranges to meet her at ten o'clock at his apartment. At ten o'clock the bell rings and Mona appears. She is closely followed by a detective, who forces from her a confession that she has killed Mary in her jealous rage. Harrasford, facing arrest as an accomplice, secretly passes a bribe to the detective who allows him to escape when they reach the street. Harrasford has barely turned the corner in his panic-stricken flight when Mona and the detective, who was really an accomplice, join in a hearty laugh and in a few moments Mary arrives to add to the rejoicing over the success of the plan to humble the conceited heartbreaker.
