Comment
A woman (Norma Shearer) who cons men out of money thinks she has found a rich single man (Lowell Sherman) and ends up falling in love with him and marrying him only to find his wealth was only potential. Meanwhile a couple (Gwen Lee and Johnny Mack Brown) who formerly worked the cons with her are trying to muscle in on her action. This is light romance, with comic moments as a criminal is reformed by love. This was the final silent film from Norma Shearer. Some dialogue was added after release but this is now lost.
