Plot
On the final night before the Hotel Continental is demolished, recently paroled embezzler Jim Bennett returns to recover a fortune he hid there years ago. He interrupts the suicide attempt of a lonely young woman, Ruth Carleton, and the two agree to start a new life together once he retrieves the money. Unknown to Jim, Ruth is working with a gang of crooks who have been waiting for him to lead them to the loot. When the gang threatens to kill Jim if she does not cooperate, Ruth must choose between betraying him and saving the man she has come to love.
