This Katherine MacDonald vehicle involving the shams of society was about as clichéd as they come. Although Priscilla Hobbs (MacDonald) comes from a family of modest means, she yearns to be accepted in high society and is embarrassed by the awkward behavior of her father (Carl Stockdale), a small merchant. Then the Hobbs suddenly come into a fortune, which thrills Priscilla -- she can now live in the style she wants. But the family's new standing draws the attention of Carter, an unscrupulous banker (Herschel Mayall); he advances Mr. Hobbs a large sum and takes a note in payment, but his motives are obviously not on the level. When Reggie Grey (Jack Dougherty) comes around and falls in love with Priscilla, he sees right away that Carter is swindling Mr. Hobbs and goes to great lengths to save him. Priscilla eventually learns to appreciate her father -- and falls for Reggie.
