Devotion

Society matron Mrs. Wayne announces her daughter Marian's marriage to Teddy Grandin, a man of position, and hopes that Ruth, her other daughter, will marry wealthy Stephen Bond. However, Ruth disappoints her mother and marries commoner Robert Trent. Later, escaped convict Jim Marsh finds his ex-wife, Lucy, remarried to a wealthy man, but she agrees to hide him if he does not harm her child. When Robert loses his job and finds Ruth wearing expensive attire supplied by Marian, he accuses his wife of having an affair with Stephen. After Jim is shot by police, Lucy hurries to Robert's apartment, where she identifies Stephen as the father of her child. Robert realizes that Ruth has been faithful and both couples are reconciled.
