As an odd coincidence. Frank Fink, a hardened degenerate, is sent up at the same time and he becomes a prison parasite on Stone. Both men are released about the same time. Wilbur Stone has secured a good position and tries to forget the past when the drunken and dissolute Fink happens to stagger into the office where he is employed. He with criminal cunning threatens to tell Stone's "number" to his employer, and the latter in terror gives up "hush money" to prevent it. A new drain comes on Stone in the person of his twin brother who has heart disease. This unfortunate young man drops dead in Stone's apartment, and the resemblance to him is so striking that he concludes to suddenly disappear and leave the impression that the dead brother is himself. The drunken Fink invades the apartment with the usual demands for money, staggers over the dead man, is discovered there and finally convicted of murdering him. Stone reads this where he has sought new life in a distant city, and to save an innocent man from the noose rushes to the rescue and arrives at the eleventh hour. He succeeds and is again so thoroughly impressed in the esteem of his employer that he is advanced in office and his past is made honorable forgetfulness.
