Alice goes to live with her aunt, where her lover visits her frequently. Old Mr. Peters is taken seriously ill. The family physician, Williston McGrew, is summoned. Knowing that Peters is very wealthy and that he has quarreled with his daughter, the unscrupulous doctor hypnotizes his patient into making over his will in favor of the nurse who has attended him. The doctor and the nurse have an understanding that they will marry and share the fortune. Then, to make results absolutely sure, McGrew administers to Peters an insidious poison. Alice returns with young Dr. Montrose to see her sick father. They find him, seemingly, dead. But Montrose detects still a glimmer of life. The young physician discovers traces of the poison. He gives peters an antidote and revives him. Montrose then investigates McGrew's laboratory. The poison phial is found. A confession is wrung from the terrified nurse, and McGrew is placed under arrest. When Peters is himself again and able to understand all that has happened, he gives Montrose and Alice his blessing.
