The young peasant girl Mary is seduced by the sly, morphine-dependent stock market trader John Robert and travels with him to Copenhagen. Unaware of his addiction as well as his status as a married family man, Mary dreams of a magnificent wedding. When the truth comes to light, she immediately leaves her fraudulent beau. But soon fate offers her an opportunity for revenge.
