Sylvia one day meets Randolph Sterling, the matinee idol, and ere long she has promised to become his wife. But so different has been her mode of living, that now as the wife of the ultra-fashionable Randolph Sterling, she is quite out of place. Sterling tires of her, and seeks his pleasure elsewhere. One night, dreaming over the baby clothes, Sylvia falls asleep wailing for her husband's return. When he does come, he is intoxicated, and as he throws her away from him, she stumbles and falls. Long weeks of illness follow, and when she learns that she is not to be a mother, Sylvia is heartbroken. But gradually the devotion, the penitence of Sterling, has its effect, and later we see them in a happy home with a baby holding the attention of the two.
