Plot

edit

As described in a film magazine review,[2] Mary Norwood's husband, a weakling, is framed by a gang of crooks and sent to prison to die for a murder he has not committed. His wife, believing implicitly in his innocence, assumes the role of a confidence woman, gets in with the gang, learns the truth by playing one gang member against the other for her affections. She has them arrested and frees her husband, who has become regenerated through the ordeal and emerges a bigger and better man.
