Lilian Lee arrives in Japan to take over a tea plantation that has been left to her. She is befriended by a tea planter, Kent, and arouses the desire of a Chinese man with a Western education, Fu Chow. This man ruins Kent's crops and then boldly declares his feeling for Lilian, at which the Englishman orders him out. Nevertheless, Fu Chow manages to persuade Lilian to come to his house. In protecting herself she stabs him. Kent stands by her at her trial, and she becomes his wife. Kent's young manager makes love to her and, thinking Kent does not actually love her, she agrees to go with him. Kidnapped, she is about to suffer nameless degradation when Kent rescues her, proving his love is genuine.—Kinematograph Weekly - January 12, 1928
