A fire breaks out in the house where the woman is rooming, and she rushes to the street en dishabille, just as the man appears.

After she is freed, she causes a sensation in a restaurant, and by the next day is headlined in all the newspapers, with the result that the bright young man succeeds in securing a contract for his "star" at a big salary.
