Visualizing the convergence of Herman C. Raymaker's style and the core Drama narrative.
Young lawyer Dick Gregory is hard-pressed to pay his wife Gloria's bills, and equally hard-pressed to keep up with the frantic pace of her life. Edward Martindel, an attorney who represents a corporation against which Dick is litigating, attempts to bribe Dick with a substantial sum of money; Dick refuses, and Gloria develops a complaint against him on this account. After a particularly bitter argument, Gloria leaves Dick and joins some friends for a moonlight cruise. The Gregorys' friend Alec Seymour tells Dick that the boat on which Gloria is sailing has not met safety standards, and Dick goes after her, saving her life when the boat sinks. Gloria repents of her wild and wicked ways, and she and Dick settle into calm domesticity.
