They prevail upon Mary's guardians to part with the child and soon all three are living happily together. Albert immediately sets out to complete his masterpiece, which he hopes will bring him fame and fortune. Ellen, however, soon becomes piqued at her husband's devotion of his entire time to his work, and even becomes jealous of his pretty model. Watching them together, she misconstrues their actions, and finally accuses Albert of being unfaithful. A violent scene ends in an agreement to part, but a difficulty arises in who shall take little Mary. The child settles that matter herself; she will not leave either of them, and her innocent love and trust finally triumphs. They decide to bury their differences, and begin over again.
