While on her way to perform some act of mercy, she is run down by an automobile in which is Maurice Castle, the well-known, but profligate artist, and upon her recovery in the hospital, the physicians claim that she is suffering from aphasia, or lack of memory. She turns from her former friends and scorns Vance, as if he were an enemy. Seeking out the company of Castle, she becomes a model in his studio and leads the usual Bohemian life, drinking and smoking as if she were used to it. One night, at a wild orgy in the studio, she becomes so enlivened by the champagne she has imbibed in, that she performs a wild gypsy dance and in so doing arouses the wicked nature of Castle. During the evening's entertainment she has displayed marked preference for one of the guests and this fact has made Castle's wicked resolution all the stronger. Upon the departure of the guests, Olive attempts to leave, but is detained by Castle. In his drunken frenzy, he calls up Coleman and tells him of his intentions. Olive, hearing the message, begins to realize what is about to occur and manages to get possession of a knife that is lying nearby. A fight ensues in which Olive wounds Castle. As she is looking at his body, Vance arrives. Olive sees the blood on her hands and the shock brings back her memory, and Vance takes her away. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
