Synopsis

Detective Benson, secretly allied with a gang of thieves, arrests young Tim Brady, who is framed for a murder and sentenced to die, though Diamond Joe Jennings promises Tim's sister that through his influence with the governor he will endeavor to free Tim. Nora Brady takes refuge with Joe and his moll, Kitty, who tells her Joe wants Tim to die so as to cover the crime. Nora informs the police, who assign Dan Hogan, brother of Pat, the murder victim, to aid her; under the alias of "Scar" Sherman, he is introduced to Joe, and with the aid of a dictograph he learns of Tim's innocence. At a dance, the gangsters expose him as an imposter, but Benson shoots Joe to protect himself just as the police, who have been called by Kitty, arrive. Dan arrests Benson, the execution is stayed, and Dan and Nora find happiness together.
