The spoiled, bored daughter of a wealthy man, Angela Pennington, amuses herself by attempting to seduce Dewey Haines, the rigid family chauffeur. Dewey wins $50,000 at the race track, and Angela's father, despondent over heavy financial loses, attempts to commit suicide. Dewey gives Mrs. Pennington a large portion of his newly acquired fortune and marries Angela. She quickly spends all of Dewey's remaining money, and he is forced to become a cab driver. Angela goes to live with her parents and comes to suspect Dewey of infidelity. Her suspicions prove to be unfounded, however, and she and Dewey are reconciled, with Angela promising to be frugal.—Pamela Short
