Jane, realizing the hopelessness of reforming him, resumes her occupation of trained nurse in a hospital. One of the first patients she is cast to care for is Walter Briggs, who, she learns, has been shot by her brother. Through her zealous attention Briggs recovers, and a short time later they are married. All goes well with the couple until Joe, learning of the marriage, visits his sister to borrow money. Joe is threatening her when Briggs, shotgun in hand, returns from a shooting trip. Joe makes his way to a boat, but Briggs, recognizing him only as the man who shot him, fires at the fugitive and Joe's career as a criminal is brought to a climax.
