As described in a film magazine review,[4] Lucille tires of her time as a young society woman and takes a position in the public schools. She requests aid in capturing a band of bootleggers. Policeman O'Malley is sent with orders to obey Lucille. O'Malley makes friends with Margie, a crippled child, whose father is in prison because O'Malley arrested him. O'Malley obtains a pardon for this man. Herbert Browne, the head of the bootleggers, is an admirer of Lucille. On the night of a masquerade ball held by Lucille, a raid is made on the band of bootleggers and Browne is found. He knocks O'Malley unconscious. When O'Malley reaches the ball, Browne is there. O'Malley arrests Browne while masking his face, but then releases him when he realizes he is Lucille's sweetheart. As O'Malley leaves the house, he is shot by Danny, whom he had received a pardon for. Danny divulges the name of Browne to the police captain. Realizing the magnamity of O'Malley, Lucille turns to him as the film ends.
