Rose Stanton meets wealthy lawyer Rodney Aldrich on a Chicago tram. Shortly thereafter, the two are a happily married couple. But the young woman wants more than just loving pampering from her husband; she wants to be recognised as his equal partner. After her plans to study law collapse, Rose packs her bags and flees her gilded cage for New York. She works as a chorus girl before getting the opportunity to design the show’s costumes. When the company performs in Chicago, she meets up again with Rodney, who is not a fan of his wife’s career … As she did in The Other Half, Florence Vidor once again plays an emancipated woman in her husband’s film. Surrounded by nonchalant smokers and self-assured chorus girls, Rose demands respect, admiration, and friendship from her spouse.
