The sweetheart of John Leonard, Margaret, is imbued with a desire for professional laurels and tells John before he goes that she has accepted a position under the district attorney. John tells her that she will be an accomplice to a system of justice that is unsocial and in an angry dispute they part. The other man, Edwin Mattel, finds it difficult to leave his sweetheart, Elsie, who becomes hysterical when she hears of his intended trip. Edwin has been seen entering Elsie's apartment, but was not seen leaving it, so that when he comes back later to get his suitcase and finds Elsie dead he is stricken with horror. He is found there, and his only witness, John Leonard, has sailed. Because of his poverty he is railroaded to the electric chair, Margaret, until the last moment, helping the District Attorney push the case against him. Then Leonard comes back, but it is too late.
