During a lawn party at his New York home, steel magnate Theodore Morton claims he is bankrupt as a deterrent to Lord Dormer and the Duke of Medonia, two fortune hunters competing for his niece, Betty.

Carl pursues Betty, who accepts his proposal with the belief that the marriage will benefit her uncle.
