Faulke, a swindling white trader who persuaded Madge to leave Captain Blackbird, insists that her daughter Lorna marry native leader Waki, although she loves Lloyd Warren. While searching for a doll for his other daughter Baby Madge, Captain Blackbird comes to Pago Pago and gruffly refuses to aid Lloyd and Lorna, whom he doesn't recognize, but a chance encounter with Faulke reveals the evil doings and Lorna's identity. The captain and his men rush to the island and rescue Lorna from the warring natives.
The Silent Lie Synopsis

Through the efforts of a stranger who is secretly in love with her, Lou escapes to a neighboring camp where she meets and marries the lumberjack Conahan without telling him of her past. Lou's unsavory past is finally revealed in a confrontation with her foster father, and her husband turns from her in disgust. She is once again saved by the stranger's intervention when he tells Conahan the truth about the girl's life. After Conahan's and Lou's reconciliation, the stranger, no longer needed, wanders alone into the snow.
