Alma Dean and her husband, Anthony, rent a
house from a trio of crooks who have the intention of stealing the
wife's jewels. The female member of the group remains in the guise
of a housekeeper, and gradually she and Anthony become very fond of each
other.
In the meantime, Alma is playing around with
a poor writer, and Anthony, miserable, leaves her, accidentally carrying
away a flask containing poison. Previously, the writer dared Alma
to commit suicide but, when she sees her husband take this very flask,
she says nothing. The "housekeeper," learning of the state of
affairs, chases after Anthony and wrecks her car at the garage where he
is buying gasoline. The situation is satisfactorily resolved. |
