Neglected by shallow husband Dick (William Collier Jr.), young bride Paula Wayne (
Patsy Ruth Miller) seeks male companionship outside the marital nest. She soon finds it in the form of mature lover Frank Gordon (
Warner Baxter). Upon learning of his wife's infidelity, Dick attempts suicide, whereupon the guilt-stricken Paula goes back to him. Ultimately, however, Paula realizes that she can't go on living a lie, and returns to Frank. D.W. Griffith veteran
Claire McDowell is seen as Paula's mother, while black comedian
Stepin Fetchit provides comedy relief as a lazy porter. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
