A storm smashes a ship onto a rocky shore, coincidentally bringing together two rivals of one woman’s love: one a drowning sailor, the other his would-be rescuer who lets him slip beneath the water. Later, overcome by guilt and the recriminations of the woman he loves, the survivor sacrifices himself by joining his rival under the sea.

A young society swain is stolen away from the young blind girl he loves by a rapacious queen of the demi-monde who is only out for his wealth…at first. Soon enough, she falls for him and is purified by her feelings. Realizing she will ruin his life if they stay together, she commits suicide in the gray of the dawn, and he returns to his true love.
