Short on money, law student Bob Ward takes a job as a "dancing companion" at a roadhouse, where most of his clients are women looking for a little excitement outside their marriages. He falls in love with Sallie Smith, a cigarette girl at the roadhouse, but wealthy young wastrel Tom Mannion also has his eye on her. Tom persuades Sallie to attend a party on his yacht, and since she has had a fight with Bob over his job, she accepts. Complications ensue.

An Amateur Devil Synopsis

Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
