Discovering the true identity of Zarth, Fred, Marguerite's admirer, pretends to fall into the trap. Leaving the code book in the safe, he takes a duplicate with him, and as he expected, Zarth informs his master. Queenie, The Wolf's accomplice, inveigles Fred, who pretends to be deceived, to her home. A struggle with The Wolf ensues after he discovers that he has been tricked. Leaving Fred bound, The Wolf hastens to Marguerite's home. Meanwhile the police, summoned through the fact that the telephone was shot to pieces in the struggle with The Wolf, have freed Fred. As The Wolf is terrorizing Marguerite to secure the codebook the police and Fred rush into the house. The Wolf and Zarth make their escape by exploding a gas bomb in the room as the officers rush in.
