As described in a film magazine review,[3] Wilson and Mortimer Travers, brothers, live in a New York City mansion, the former brother being a jewel collector. The police are investigating a tip that the jewels will be stolen. Marie Duquesne, dressed as a bride, drops in unexpectedly, claiming to have fled from a distasteful marriage. Wilson allows her to remain. There follows a weird series of complications, with the jewels and Marie the chief center of attraction. In the end Marie saves the jewels from the master thief. Wilson's gratitude turns to love for her.
