Disguised as an old woman, Marie assists a gang, headed by Mordaunt, in a daring jewel robbery. A murder is committed during the holdup, and Rogers, a young boy, is held for the crime and sentenced to death. Marie falls in love with Banning, the district attorney who prosecuted the case, and with her help, a last-minute confession is obtained from Mordaunt and Rogers is saved from electrocution. The boy is reunited with his grieving mother, and Marie, because of her aid, is absolved of her part in the robbery.—AFI
