    After ten years of marriage, Beth and Robert Gordon are rapidly drifting apart. Beth has high brow tastes while her husband prefers baser pleasures. One night, Robert becomes romantically involved with Sally Clark, and when Beth finds out, she demands a divorce. Robert marries Sally, and while they are vacationing at a fashionable summer resort, Robert meets Beth. She has transformed herself into a desirable woman and Robert discovers that the old spark of love is rekindled. Later, Robert meets Beth again, and while they are walking together, he slips and falls. Beth takes the injured Robert home, and when Sally learns of the accident, she demands her husband back. At the conclusion of the ensuing battle between the women, Beth wins back her husband while Sally contents herself with alimony.
