Her husband Rex is infatuated by Yvette, a dancer; forgetting all about his anniversary, he takes Yvette to dinner for her birthday and buys her a beautiful diamond necklace, which he leaves in his overcoat pocket. Ruth peeks into his pocket for her expected present and discovers the necklace. She is surprised when Rex leaves without giving it to her. She goes to the theater and sees Yvette there with the necklace on and realizes the truth. Ruth goes to Rex's brother Wallace and tells him her troubles, insisting that he take her to a brilliant Bohemian café. There she becomes reckless and smokes and sings despite Wallace's protestations. She makes a hit with one of the frequenters of the café and goes to his table, which is filled with friends, where she is the life of the crowd. Rex and Yvette come in and Rex is amazed to see his wife. He knocks her admirer down and out and drags Ruth home. There Ruth tells him she does not want to be good if it means losing his companionship. Rex realizes how dear Ruth is to him and they reunite. Written by
