A young woman, who wants to be in the Follies, is making ends meet by working at a department store's sheet music department, where she sings the latest hits.

When a vaudeville performer asks her to join him as his new partner, she sees it as an opportunity to make her dream come true. Upon arriving in New York City, our heroine finds out that her new partner is only interested in sleeping with her and makes this a condition of making her a star.
