A poor, working class family in the big city scratches out a living doing laundry. The daughter, Mary Pickford, gets a new job as a cigarette girl in a swanky nightclub. She accidentally meets a playboy artist, and when she takes him home after a fight in the bar to be patched up by her mother, the neighborhood gossip mill links the two together. Her boyfriend dumps her, so she flirts with the playboy and is invited to a party in his mansion. His snooty mother and her society friends decide to use her as a "social experiment", leading to predictable complications and the inevitable happy ending. Mary Pickford is always worth watching and she does not disappoint with another irresistible performance.
