Plot Summary:Tom Decker, a young society man, loses his money gambling. His friend, Carl Dana, suggests he try the easiest way of making money, which is to marry it. Carl has been in love with a woman of great wealth and beauty, known in society as Madame Cubist. She has laughed in his face, and Carl, eager to be revenged, hides his true motive and urges his friend, Tom, to try to win the beauty. Tom turns from such a proposition with disgust, but his comrades at the club, headed by Carl, bet him five hundred dollars he cannot land Madame Cubist, and Carl offers to stake him to the courtship. Tom, never having seen the famous lady, save in photographs, hesitates but after awhile consents, Tom meets Madame Cubist unconventionally and soon finds that he is falling desperately in love with her. She, too, is enamored. But over Tom's head hangs the thought of the wager, and he determines to tell her all, and thus put himself at her mercy. But although he tries repeatedly to tell her, she never gives him an opportunity. Madame Cubist plans a brilliant ball to announce their engagement. All their friends are invited. Tom plans to go after one perfect evening with the woman he loves. He decides to go away until he has worked honestly and made himself worthy of her. He writes her a letter telling her all this, and gives it to one of her servants to deliver after he has gone that night. The dance is a gay affair and Madame Cubist is the life of her party. But Carl has not forgotten his rejection. His time for revenge has come. He claims a dance and takes her away to an alcove where he brutally tells her the truth, that the man she loves is marrying her for her money. She will not believe it until he lays the signed note in her hands. After the guests have all gone, she faces Tom and tells him what she has learned, and begs him to tell her it is not true, but he cannot. Dejectedly he tells her it is true. Then he listens to her volume of wrath and leaves her. He returns home while she sobs her heart out, but even as she is crying the servant gives her his letter which was to be delivered after all had gone. She reads it. It is a full confession telling her how he has learned to love her, but is going away until he feels he deserves to strive for her love. In a flash she has forgiven all as she sees the bigness of the man. She flies to the telephone. \"Tom,\" she sobs, \"if you are going away tonight, I want to go too. Will you ask me to elope or must I ask you?\" Needless to say he asks her and all ends well.
