Summary:
Daisy, a Florodora girl, who is too man-shy to go after a husband, is taken into hand by her sisters and embarks on an affair with young millionaire Jack Vibart, whose mother has already planned his marriage. She falls in love, although her friends warn her of his dishonorable intentions. Realizing that he loves her, he proposes, but the marriage is opposed by his mother when he loses the family fortune. Daisy marries him, nevertheless, and he finally makes good in the new automobile business and comes to carry her off during the Florodora act.
