The speed demon receives an invitation to Mrs. Montague's ball. She has a celebrated necklace. He drops the card and it is found by Francis, a crook. Meg, another thief, sees him read it. They both resolve to have a try for the jewels. Meg goes to the ball in a mask, but Francis goes as a guest. He gets the jewel. Two detectives follow him. He jumps from his moving automobile, leaving his cane behind. Meg has followed him. She now goes to his rooms and they see each other unmasked for the first time. She steals his watch to get even. The detectives find his cane and see a monogram on it. They go to the jeweler who made it and he identifies it. He is arrested, tried and pronounced guilty. Meg hears of this. She visits him in jail, and he tells her where the necklace is hidden. She returns it to Mrs. Montague, who then thinks that it was only mislaid. Francis is released. The two crooks marry and resolve to reform. Moving Picture Weekly, April 1917.
