Hampton, however, surmises what has happened from things his doctor friend tells him, and gains possession of one of the counterfeit bills. With this to work on, Hampton disguises himself and goes to work in the Italian quarter, Sebastian watches the doctor's movements and in that way discovers that Manfredi's sweetheart, Viola, is a girl he loved in Italy. He makes himself known to the girl and by threatening to inform the police that her father murdered her husband in Italy, forces her to break her engagement and marry him. Manfredi is broken hearted, but cowed by the receipt of letters from the "Secret Seven" is cowed into submission. But Rita, a cast-off sweetheart of Sebastian's, and a member of the "Secret Seven" learns that he has married Viola and filled with jealous rage, determines on revenge.
