Mordecai Breen is devoting his life to welfare work among the city's needy, and publishes a small newspaper called "The Friend in Need," assisted by his former prize fighter friend, Happy Hogan. An advertisement headed "I'll Buy Your Life" appears in the paper and Breen decides to investigate. At the address given, the swanky Alhambra Arms apartments, Breen learns that the advertiser is Alfred Darnell, an orchestra leader and writer of detective stories. A number of girls answer the ad, but Dale Leyden, after being interviewed by Darnell and Velencia Duncan, is the successful applicant. As she leaves, Breen tells her that if she should find herself in the need of any assistance, to let him know. Dale tells her blind musician brother Philip that an uncle who formerly lived in South America has left them twenty thousand dollars. Meanwhile, back to the original story, Breen calls on his friend, Police Lieutenant Hammer, who shows Breen the evidence from the Parmelee murder: a pearl pendant from a bracelet, a piece of sequin from a woman's gown and part of a heel from an evening slipper. Dale calls on Breen, tells him her name is Mary Jones and gives him an envelope. When he is notified that Mary Jones is dead, he is to open the envelope that contains two letters. If he receives the sum of $18,000, he is to open the first letter and deliver the money to the name and address given, and destroy the second letter without opening it. If he doesn't get the money, he is to open the second letter and see that justice is done. Is Mary giving her life to take a fall for the killer of Ruth Permelee in exchange for money to provide an operation for her blind brother? Highly probable. Is the plot plausible? Highly improbable. Did Elmer Clifton direct worse films. Quite often.

- In this pretty drama we see a little girl, the daughter of very wealthy people, out walking with her nurse, and as they pass a little barefooted girl leading an old blind street musician the rich child's heart is touched and she hands the little waif some pennies. The nurse and child then continue on, when all at once they are set upon by two ruffians who bind and gag the nursemaid and kidnap the little girl. They take her to a lonely hut, where they have a female accomplice, and put the child in a cellar, intending to keep her there until her father pays them a ransom. The old blind musician and his little girl happen to be passing the hut when their attention is attracted by the sound of a child crying. They are about to investigate, but before they carry out their designs the ruffians appear and find the old man, while the girl escapes. The latter, knowing where to find the parents of the imprisoned child, hastens away to inform the father of his little one's whereabouts, and volunteers to direct him to the spot. They go to the police station and a couple of officers accompany them on their errand. When they arrive at the hut the bandits are taken unawares, and after a desperate resistance they are overpowered and taken away. The barefoot girl directs the man to the door of the chamber where his little one is concealed, and after releasing the blind man he enters and finds his baby. The proud and happy parents decide to take the street urchin into their home to be a sister to their little daughter, and at the same time make ample provision for the future happiness of the poor blind man.
