Finding Betty defiantly determined to marry Kent, Anne decides that the only way to save the girl is to enslave her ex-husband with her charms and therefore win him back. The two women then enter into competition for Kent, Betty matching her freshness and beauty against Anne's mature accomplishments of grace and artfulness.
