Egotistical Budapest stage actor Stephan Karpath (Adolphe Menjou) has his lover and co-star Zita Marishka (Elissa Landi) fired out of jealousy. They marry on a ship to New York City after she decides to leave. In America, Stephan struggles to find work while Zita disguises herself as a famous unmarried Russian actress to land a leading Broadway role, eventually securing a part for Stephan opposite her. As Zita draws romantic attention from the producer and playwright Larry Kenyon (David Manners), Stephan eventually steps aside, feigning a return to Budapest.
