Dr. Stephen Dominick runs a girls' finishing school. Professor Anna Mathe is fond of him, and Marie Claudel, a French student of nineteen, is too. At a fair, the girls draw lots for a dance with Dominick; Marie wins, he refuses because she is a pupil, and she runs off in tears, missing the bus back. Professor Augusta Wimmer searches the students' belongings and finds a love letter that was thrown away. Dominick and Mathe must identify the writer, and the handwriting points to Marie. The stricter teachers think she met a boyfriend while away and want her punished.
