After they marry, Harry develops tuberculosis, forcing Sarah to return to work. A doctor advises Harry to move to a milder climate, but Sarah's appeals to an aid society bring no solution. Jimmie, now a successful songwriter, hopes to win Sarah away from Harry, but instead loses $300 to her in wagers, then is rebuffed when he tries to make love to her. Claiming that she earned the money as a dancer, Sarah pays Harry's way to California, following soon after with their child. Written by AFI See less
