She is very plain and unpretentious, although a handsome woman. Bob is attracted by his typewriter, a very stylish and well-mannered girl. She has never met Mrs. Wynn, and does not know that Bob is married. He makes love to her, takes her out to luncheons, and she is very favorably impressed. She learns that he is married and makes up her mind that she will call upon his wife. She knows his weakness for stylish and well-dressed women, and she tells Mrs. Wynn a11 about it. She advises Mrs. Wynn that she is unjust and unfair to herself by not making the most of her beauty, and tells her that she has a fighting chance to completely win her husband's love and to teach him a lesson. His wife appreciates Nell's honorable attitude, and together they arrange to prepare for the transformation in Mrs. Wynn's appearance and graces. Nell makes an appointment with Bob to go to the theater. Mrs. Wynn, dressed in the height of fashion, comes in and takes a seat in the next box, with her back turned toward them. When she enters Bob is busily engaged in talking to Nell and does not see her. After a few moments he is attracted by the woman's stunning appearance and calls Nell's attention to her. She tells him that she is acquainted with the lady, and if he would like to have an introduction she will be pleased to give it. Bob is all eagerness. They step outside the box into the hallway, and Nell calls Mrs. Wynn. She comes out, looks into her husband's face and smiles. He clasps her in his arms and asks her forgiveness.
