The Thirtieth Piece of Silver Synopsis

Tyler Cole's greatest treasure is the last of the thirty pieces of silver for which Judas betrayed Christ - a ducat - which Tyler has locked in a cabinet, forbidding his wife Leila to open the receptacle. Leila, her curiosity piqued, is told by fortune-teller Mignon Brunner that the cabinet harbors a portrait of her husband's old girl friend while the seer, in an attempt to capitalize upon marital discord, informs Tyler that his wife has unrequited feelings for her former suitor Captain Lake. Leila, driven to jealousy, opens the cabinet just as Lake pays an unexpected visit. In her surprise, Leila drops the coin, which lands in Lake's trouser cuff and is carried off by her former suitor when Tyler arrives and jealously orders him from the house. Leila, desperate to retrieve the coin, follows Lake to his hotel, where Tyler traces her. After an initial confrontation, Tyler and Leila come to the realization that their fortune-teller has been fomenting marital discord, and the couple are reconciled.
