Synopsis

Stephen De Koven épouse Muriel Chester, une femme dont il admire la beauté mais surtout dont il désire l'argent. Lorsqu'elle découvre cela lors de sa nuit de noces, Muriel, qui hait son mari mais qui a été blessée dans son amour-propre, préfère vivre seule, ne voyant son mari que lorsque les convenances l'exigent. Un jour en rentrant chez lui, De Koven voit Tina Pierce, une fille des bas-fonds qui a une surprenante ressemblance avec Muriel. Persuadé que c'est surtout la beauté de sa femme qui l'attire, il installe Tina dans un appartement et la couvre de cadeaux luxueux, dans l'intention d'en faire un double de sa femme, pour finalement découvrir qu'il aime Muriel plus de sa beauté ou son argent. Rejeté une nouvelle fois par sa femme, il décide de partir pour l'Europe. Tina, consciente que Koven aime sa femme, va réussir à les reconcilier.

Vogue magazine (November 15, 1917) wrote about the production: "In the open-air theatre at “Rosemary Farm,” the Long Island estate of Mr. Roland R. Conklin was given, early in October, a most gorgeous pageant, which proved to be, at the same time, one of the most successful of war benefits. This pageant, which consisted of episodes from the history of each of the Allied nations, and the presentation of the case of each Ally before the bar of Truth, Justice, and Liberty, was organized by actors and actresses of the American stage as their contribution to the American Red Cross. It had been long in preparation, and many noted men and women had given generously of their time and effort, --an effort which found its reward, for this single performance brought a net profit of fifty thousand dollars, and the motion picture films which will carry the pageant all over the country will afford an additional income to the Red Cross for some time to come.

Set in 1921, the film centers around the character of novelist Winthrop Clavering (Emerson), known as "The World's Greatest Detective". Clavering befriends young inventor Bartholomew Thompson (Spottiswoode Aitken), who has just invented a radio controlled flying bomb (weaponry that would come to be known as guided missiles). Bartholomew is soon murdered by spies, described as "yellow men from the East" in the film, who steal his new invention. Clavering and his Swedish maid Hulda (Bessie Love) set out to find the spies who have been invading the United States. Clavering and Hulda catch up with spies just as they invade California and force them out of the country with the same device they stole.
