Henry is about to leave home for his office, his wife requests him to place her pearl necklace in the bank safe deposit. She places the bag in his overcoat pocket. Then he remembers that he has forgotten his watch. In her husband's absence, Mrs. Henry receives a 'phone message to attend a bridge party, and desiring to wear the necklace, takes the bag out of Henry's pocket and forgets to tell him of it. In the employ of Henry is Miss Violet, a stenographer, Parker, the bookkeeper, and Sam, the shipping clerk. Sam is very fond of Miss Violet and invites her to a dance, which she refuses. Sam is much chagrined and makes an angry exit. Later Henry remembers the bag with the necklace. He finds that it has disappeared and makes inquiry. Still later Sam, through the window, sees Miss Violet place a small bag in her stocking and informs Mr. Henry. The girl is summoned and requested to produce the bag. Parker fights hard for the stenographer, but Sam, feeling sure of his game, telephones for the police. They force Violet to show the bag, which she digs out and displays the contents to be her powder puffs. In the meantime, Mrs. Henry has 'phoned to her husband to inform him that she has won the prize at bridge. He in return tells her of the missing necklace. This explains the mystery and Henry proposes to raise the girl's salary, but she advises that he shall raise Parker's salary instead, as they are about to be married.
