Martin Craig (Sam de Grasse) believes that his son may not really be his, so he throws both his wife, Pauline (Ethel Clayton), and the child out of the house. Pauline leaves the little fishing village for the city, but believes her boy has died along the way. He was not dead, however, but merely lost. He grows up to be known as Bill Smith (Cullen Landis). Pauline, meanwhile, has found a certain amount of satisfaction in running a home for fallen girls. One of the young ladies, it turns out, is from Pauline's own village, so she returns to discover that the young man who wronged the girl was her own son. Bill, Martin, and Pauline overcome their mutual animosity and are reunited.
