剧情简介: Alam, in love with Hera, his employer's daughter, is severely beaten when Mustapth catches him in the act of peering into the harem. Wright, an art dealer, visits the Orient and purchases goods from Mustapth. The American accepts an invitation to join the Persian and his friends in a game of cards. A quarrel occurs between Mustapth and Wright and in the course of the battle, the lights are extinguished. When the lamps are relit, Mustapth is found dead. The knife with which the deed was committed is found in Wright's hand. The American flees. Hera, heart-broken, vows to slay the murderer and she follows Wright to New York. Discovering him to be in the habit of patronizing a certain restaurant, she obtains a position as a dancer in the cabaret. The fact that her face is always veiled while on the stage arouses considerable curiosity. Wright is delighted when the masked dancer invites him to her home. Alam follows Hera to America. It is his intention to wed the girl after she has fulfilled her vow. The man hides himself in a closet in her library. Wright falls in love with Hera. After leading him on, the girl suddenly turns upon the man and attempts to slay him. Disarming Hera, Wright learns her story. He vows that he is innocent. Alam breaks out of the closet and viciously attacks Wright. A frightful struggle ensues. It ends when Alam mortally wounds himself. With death near, the Persian confesses that he had stabbed Mustapth in the dark and then thrusts the knife into Wright's hand. Comforting the victim of Alam's villainy, Wright takes her in his arms.
