Synopsis by Janiss Garza
When Sadie (Gladys Brockwell), a hash-house waitress, finds out that her lover Jim Lacy (Walter Long) has a wife and child that he deserted, she angrily takes off to find work in a far-away Western town. She is determined to hate all men, but she falls in love with the cafe's handsome young manager anyhow. While the manager is staking a gold claim, Lacy arrives in town and seeks out Sadie. He tells her that he has shot a man and needs help to go back East to his wife and child. Sadie comes to his aid with the help of a crooked roulette wheel, and then she finds out that the man Lacy has shot is the cafe manager. He recovers, however, in time for a happy ending.
