Rodger Gregory wins the love of Greda, whom Walter Brent had also wished to marry. Being good friends, Gregory insists that Brent live with them. Sometime later finds the three living happily together. During a two months' absence of Brent, Gregory forms a friendship with John Lockert. Lockert becomes a regular visitor at his home. Gregory, unthinking, spends most of his leisure time working, while Lockert entertains his wife. Brent returns, and seeing trouble is sure to result, warns Gregory. Gregory refuses to listen. Finally Brent overhears Lockert proposing an elopement to Greda. She consents. Brent goes to Gregory telling him that he himself has tempted his wife and she had listened. Gregory threatens him, swearing never again to speak to him. Brent then warns Lockert to stay away from Greda. Many months pass and finally Greda tells her husband it was Lockert who had tempted her and Brent who had saved her. Their friendship with Brent is then restored after Gregory's humble apologies have been accepted.
