As described in a film magazine review,[4]gold digging chorus girl Evelyn Vance seeks a rich daddy to take care of her. Evelyn marries the wealthy Marshall Langham thereby double-crossing her boss John Gilmore, who had schemed to use her to rope Marshall into a scandal because of the debts that he owed Gilmore. Gilmore is killed and district attorney John North, sworn enemy of Gilmore and his gambling empire, is held on circumstantial evidence. Evelyn could clear North of the crime, but in so doing she would expose her husband Marshall who is actually the guilty party. When Marshall is on his deathbed, he makes a final statement that clears North as he is engaged to his sister Barbara. At this point Evelyn has a vision in which each of her sins is materialized as a monster. Evelyn wakes and decides, at the final fade-out, to go to a picnic given by an iceman and not go after another rich daddy.
