Completely nonplussed, the police are obliged to call in special detective service, and a noted sleuth is assigned to the ease. Detective White frequents the haunts of the girl, finally meeting and ingratiating himself in the role of a lover. Disguised as one of the habitués of the dive, he tries for some time to secure damaging evidence, but is unsuccessful. In his attentions to Mamie he arouses the Jealousy of big "Bill," a notorious crook, whose suspicions are aroused as to the detective's true calling. Through persistent shadowing, he finds his suspicions correct and just as the detective had planned to make a clean haul, denounces him before the gang and in the hearing of the girl. Although thoroughly disillusioned, the girl cannot forget the one good influence that entered her life, and as the gang is about to wreak its vengeance, she throws herself upon the gun in the hands of "Big Bill" and in the struggle, receives the shot intended for the detective.
