The latter is an unscrupulous sharp who defrauds girls and their doting parents through promises of a brilliant future on the concert stage after he has cultivated their voices. The girls plan to recover Winnie's money and drive Herman from business. Mary becomes one of his pupils, and after winning his confidence secures his aid in a plan to mulct Mona and her supposed wealthy backers, Carson and Grant.
