Bob Terry is in love with Lois Borden the daughter of his employer, John Borden. When some bonds are missing from the office, Bob is accused and because of Borden's strong sense of obligation to his stockholders, Bob is railroaded to prison. A few years later, the real thief is apprehended and Bob is released. He now begins his plan for revenge against Borden with the aid of his prison cell mate Todd and a gangster, John Carmody. Soon, some bonds are missing again and Borden knows Bob is involved but because Bob has suffered at his hands before, Borden assumes the responsibility and is about to be sentenced to prison. Todd is shot while trying to steal the bonds back from Carmody, but gets the bonds back to Bob and, before he dies, begs Bob to return them to the owner.

"Bob" (Ben Alexander) works for "Borden" (Ralph Morgan) and is keen on his daughter "Lois" (Kay Linaker). All is going well until some bonds goes missing and the boss, reluctantly to be fair, concludes that "Bob" is the culprit and off to jail he goes. Once incarcerated, he becomes bitter towards his erstwhile employer swearing vengeance with his cellmate "Todd" (Eddie Acuff). After five years, new evidence proves that he was innocent. His former employer, wracked with guilt, offers to try and make things right - but will "Bob" accept, or will he follow through with this designs on revenge. The story is quite interesting, asking the question what might we do in that situation - on either side of the prison bars. The execution is really pretty lacklustre, though. The direction and performances are static, and Linaker is really wooden. It does pack quite a bit into an hour, and is a decent example of a B-feature that moves along quickly and efficiently, if entirely unremarkably.
