Two business partners pursue the same woman. She accepts the marriage proposal of the irresponsible partner, much to her later regret.

He telephones his wife from the office, as he puts a revolver near his head. The wife tries to keep him talking while the reliable business partner races to the office in an attempt to save his old friend. Will he make it in time?
