A doctor, whose theory is that crime is a disease, and should be treated as such, sees a young girl in the disguise of a Salvation Army lass, very successfully steal a watch, and decides to keep an eye on her. He follows her to a cheap restaurant, where he tells her that he saw her steal the watch. She gives it up to him and he returns it to the owner. She tells her uncle, with whom she lives, and who forces her to steal, that she is going to stop being a thief. He only laughs at her. The uncle finds an advertisement in the paper for a young housemaid, and tells the girl she must take the job, and that he and the young chap, whom the uncle has in his power, will come at night and ransack the house. The girl, after persuasion, does as she is bid and secures the position. This happens to be the house owned by the doctor. At midnight the girl comes to the drawing-room through which she is to admit her accomplice. The doctor comes in unexpectedly and has a good talk with the girl. When the two men enter, the doctor compels the uncle to make a confession and then lets him go. He tells the girl and the young man if they will swear to begin life anew in a distant country, he will give them money to redeem their past. He sees them start on their way.
