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.
