One day she concludes to leave the family roof for a while, and goes to New York to visit Bohemian friends. While there, she meets Royal LeClerq, an artist, becomes fascinated by him, and poses for him. Paul Stratton, Clifford's best friend, happens to be in New York and through friendship, undertakes to investigate the company she has chosen. While Vivian has been neglecting her home, lonesome Rodney Clifford has been more or less forlorn, but is confronted by the presence of a cousin of Vivian, Alice Barlow, who comes to visit him. One of the children is taken very ill and she remains to nurse it. This brings the pair together, and she seems to be Rodney's ideal. Stratton wires Clifford that he is bringing his wife home. This participates a climax in the affairs of her cousin and her husband, and Alice prepares to return to her western home. As Vivian enters, under the escort of Stratton, Alice takes her departure on the arm of the same friend of the family. Vivian selfishly rebukes the better woman, her cousin, for her indiscretion in remaining under the same roof with her husband while she was absent in New York on important matters of business, and the sacrificial spirit keeps the seal of silence under the taunt.
