Arthur loves Lucile, a model, but the girl seeks a wealthy suitor and repulses the artist. Shortly afterward the students attend a masque ball, both dressing as Dromios. While the affair is at its height, M. Durant, representing an American law firm, locates Arthur and the message he imparts to the boy causes the latter to return home. Later in the evening the attorney, mistaking Jack for his client, informs a friend that the latter has just inherited an immense fortune. This is overheard by Lucile, who at once sets her cap for Jack. Arthur returns to America. Jack turns his attention to a bust which he intends to place on exhibition. His model is Yvonne, a girl who secretly loves him. At Lucile's instigation, Jack dismisses Yvonne and substitutes the former in her place. The bust, when completed, is hailed as a masterpiece by the critics. Then comes Lucile's discovery that it is Arthur and not Jack who has inherited the fortune. Wild with rage, she steals into Jack's studio one night and destroys the bust for which she and Yvonne had posed. The woman cleverly contrives to throw suspicion upon Yvonne. Beside himself at the discovery of the ruin, Jack drinks heavily. Upon Arthur's return to Paris, Lucile tries to ensnare him. Later, half-crazed, Jack endeavors to kill the siren. The latter confesses her guilt and goes on her way despised by Jack and Arthur. Faithful Yvonne finally finds happiness in the arms of the man she loves.
