Plot

Mary Adams is a waitress in a waterfront bar run by a man who had swindled her father years before. One night, she climbs in the man's bedroom window and steals $25,000 from under his pillow. The police arrive the next morning, and to escape pursuit and the reprisal of the bar-owner, she confesses to the crime. When the money is not recovered, Adams is sent to prison for five years, but earns early release for good behavior. While on parole, she gets another waterfront waitressing job, working for a Dragomie Damitrof. Mary believes that she is being watched by the authorities still trying to recover the money, and is un-trusting of everyone.
