Upon receiving a plea for help from childhood chum Nell Jerrold begging Anne to save Nell's daughter Betty from marrying Kent, the ex-Mrs. Wetherall decides to journey to the Jerrold's home in the town of Wheaton to investigate. Finding Betty defiantly determined to marry Kent, Anne decides that the only way to save the girl is to enslave her ex-husband with her charms and therefore win him back. The two women then enter into competition for Kent, Betty matching her freshness and beauty against Anne's mature accomplishments of grace and artfulness. Kent finally falls under Anne's spell, expressing repentance for previous shortcomings and proposing marriage. Anne accepts to save Betty, only to discover that she is still in love with her husband.
