He marries Marion Moore, an adventuress who leaves him after her interest wanes. Bill is driven to drink and he is blamed for a killing committed by his law partner.

One day they rescue Nita, a girl who is the sole survivor of a boating accident, and take her in. Jack and Nita fall in love and are eventually married, and Bill decides to return home to his mother.
