In order to raise money for her mother's operation, waitress Rita Wilson turns to modelling for a sculpture. She encounters the wealthy Jack Thorndyke and after getting drunk at a party at his penthouse apartment, he takes advantage of her. She contracts a mystery illness and Jack refuses all her calls. She goes through a succession of increasing dead-end jobs and then faints in the street. Waking up in hospital she is reunited with her old boyfriend milkman Bob Grey.
