Wealthy Spencer is engaged to society girl Agatha. At his bachelor party, Spencer criticizes singer Mary and she makes a scene in the club and is fired as a result. Spencer fixes this and they fall in love. Agatha accuses Mary of being a fortune-hunter and this results in a catfight in the same club. Spencer realizes Mary is more of a lady than the upper-class Agatha and that Mary is the one he wants as a wife.
