A climax is reached one day when the child, disobeying his mother, injures himself fatally. The husband is stunned by the shock, and for a while treats his wife with consideration, but the cares of business enfold him again, and one day he locks himself in with the board of directors after promising to take her to visit the baby's grave. She comes to the office and is stopped by the confidential clerk. A messenger arrives, bringing word from the broker's secret partner that unless more margin is put up on their holdings the market will wipe them out. The wife takes the message, saying that she will deliver it, but outside the door of the directors' room she hesitates, resolves to teach him a lesson, and goes off. After the meeting of the directors is over, the husband gets a frantic telephone call from his partner, turns to the confidential clerk for confirmation, and, learning the truth, starts for home.
