Florence Banning graduates from finishing school on the same day that Molly is released from a reform school. Molly returns to the slums where she was born and takes up with her old friend, Chunky. Together they go to a dancehall, where Molly is saved from the advances of a fresh bystander by David, a young inventor with a workshop nearby. Molly and David become pals, and, at her suggestion, he sells his invention, an automatic safe-opening device, to a cartel of bankers and businessmen, instead of giving it to a gang of crooks on percentage. The cartel is headed by Judge Banning, and David soon meets his daughter, Florence, who greatly resembles Molly. David falls in love with her, but she will have nothing to do with him, believing that Molly has a prior claim to his affections. Molly discovers David's love for Florence and steps aside, enabling David and Florence to find happiness together
