Plot
As described in a film magazine, Cyprienne Marcey (Burke), who eats, dreams, and writes romance, chooses Henri (Miltern), brother of his roommate, as the object of his affection. After a spectacular run of marriage, Henri's attempt to re-write was a surprise for her romantic temperament. Seeing in Henri's cousin, Adhemar (Kaliz) the soul of romance, she asks Henri to divorce so that she may marry Adhemar. Henri agrees, but once the secret aspect of his affair with Adhemar is removed, he immediately approaches him. On the night before the day set for his divorce, he persuaded her husband to take her to dinner and away from Adhemar. When the latter broke into their private dining room with the police, he was criticized by Cyprienne who firmly stated that Henri, her husband, was the only man she had ever loved.
