Vicki Meredith, a ballet dancer living in Paris, is about to take a trip to Brittany with her new lover, Randall Williams, when Randall gets a telegram informing him that his wife has arrived in Paris.  Shocked and hurt by the revelation that Randall is married, Vicki leaves Paris for South America to forget him.  In South America, Vicki meets Philip Fletcher, a construction engineer, and they fall in love.  Five months later, Vicki and Philip sail to New York and part ways, Philip taking a job at Boulder Dam and Vicki going off to Paris to dance again.

Five years pass, and Vicki and Philip reunite in New York, only to be intruded upon by Randall, who shows up unexpectedly, and appears still to be interested in Vicki.  Randall and Philip vie for Vicki's affections when they escort her to Henri's speakeasy, where Cynthia Williams, Randall's wife, meets Vicki.  Cynthia and Vicki become fast friends despite their respective resolves to hate each other.

When Vicki learns that both Philip and Randall plan to sail to Paris on the same steamer, she is forced to choose between the two.  Vicki wants Philip to invite her along to make her decision easier, but he decides to test her by refusing to ask her.  Eventually, Vicki breaks her silence and chooses Philip, and the two are soon married.
