Summary Life Corp, a leader in the technology field, is working on ground breaking technology to make people happy. The company's CEO, Sir John Chris, argues this is coming at a time when people are angry and need a change. Ben Lau, a software engineer, has dedicated the last three years of his life on the Life Corp project trying to make a difference. Together with Raj, his fellow software engineer, and Liz, his project manager, conduct their final experiment which would actually make an unhappy person happy.

June Bolton (Maxine Doyle) is strong-willed, beautiful, reckless girl,blessed with money and a fond mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Bolton (Zella Russell), who knows not the first principle of maternal rule. Emerging from a reckless, on her part, automobile wreck and escaping the police, she is sought by police detectives as she escapes to Los Angeles. Her mother, a passenger aboard the incoming steamship Melolo, learns of June's latest escapade by cable and she wires the family legal adviser, Dick Clayton (Rod LaRocque), to find June and guard her until she arrives home. Clayon catches up with June in a downtown hotel but, already, Jimmy Taylor, a tabloid newspaper reporter, has also located her and headline again threaten the family name. In front of the hotel, June escapes Clayton by jumping into a limousine and rides away with Bret Graham, a charming but vicious racketeer. Clayton follows her to Graham's notorious inn, the Red Mill, where June has instantly acquired the friendship of Hazel White (Barbara Pepper), a dancer. Clayton arrives and he and Graham have a fistfight and,in the confusion, June and Hazel are arrested. Steve McDonald, a Graham henchman, who is in love with Hazel, bails both girls out of jail. The enraged Graham orders Steve to "take Clayton for a one-way ride" but allows Clayton to escape. This enrages Graham to the point that he murders Steve. June now finds herself caught in the midst of Los Angeles crime but more than ever determined to have her fill of adventure. She bitterly resents Clayton's attempts to get her out of the wild-side life, slaps him and dismisses him as her attorney. The resigned and hopeless Clayton does so. Riding with Graham and Hazel, June is a witness as Graham's gangster enemy, Red Hogan (Vincent Dennis) fires a hail of lead into the car, striking the racketeer down, Graham recuperates at a hospital and Junes finds her name in the news again. Hogan determines to silence June and goes to her hotel room. Clayton breaks in as Hogan is overpowering June with brutal strength. Clayton put the gangster down as the police arrive, June laughs. "The man doesn't live who can tame me," she taunts Clayton. Clayton seizes her and takes a hair brush from the dressing table. He then delivers a a sound spanking to June and it has a sobering effect. June calls him back as he is leaving and hands him the spanking brush. "Perhaps,"she tells him, "you'll need it again."
