The victim absolutely declines to shed light on the mystery. The following story explains the reason for Tony's silence. Barton, regarded as a man of mystery, keeps all knowledge of men and of the world from his daughter, Eleanor. Fate, however, causes Eleanor and Tony to meet. The two fall in love. Later, Tony secures the girl's promise to elope with him. He arranges to meet her at the railroad terminal in the city that night. Because his mother refuses to repay a sum of money which she had borrowed from him, Tony appropriates her pearl necklace in jest. Mrs. Peyton's maid sees Tony take the necklace and later imparts the information to a mysterious man waiting outside. Tony leaves for the city and becomes slightly intoxicated on the way. Eleanor meets her sweetheart that night. Believing he is taking her to a minister, she accompanies Tony to his apartment. Discovering the truth, she shrinks from him in horror. At the same instant, a burglar enters Tony's bedroom via the fire escape. The intoxicated boy offers Eleanor his mother's pearls, but the girl repulses him. A cry of horror causes both to turn. Standing in the bedroom doorway is Barton. Seizing a vase, the father knocks Tony down. Father and daughter gaze upon each other in horror. Eleanor finally convinces him of the truth of her story. The knowledge that her father is a thief fills the girl with grief. The following afternoon, Barton, aided by Eleanor, returns all the jewels he had stolen to the original owners. A maid enters with a message. It is from Tony. The boy acknowledges his baseness, but begs forgiveness. With a glad cry, Eleanor presses the note to her lips.
