Synopsis by Hal Erickson

After another of their tempestuous arguments, Doris and John Manning (Helene Chadwick and Gayne Whitman) decide to separate. At the same time, a younger couple, Clara and Herb Bradley (Dorothy Revier and Ray Ripley) also split up over a quarrel. Inevitably, Herb finds himself in an innocent but compromising situation with Doris at a roadhouse -- where, coincidentally, Clara is fending off the advances of masher Guy Summers (Harlan Tucker). The roadhouse catches fire, whereupon Herb rushes the scantily-clad Doris to safety. John Manning shows up to accuse his wife of infidelity (gee, aren't they separated?), but Clara puts her own reputation on the line by proving Doris' innocence. As a result, both couples are reconciled, while gosh only knows what happens to Guy.
