Gerry Daly and Carol Northrup are residents of a New York City hotel for women. Gerry fakes a suicide out of anger for her married lover spurning her. At the hospital, administrator Dr. Hugh Mayberry takes a liking to Carol, while young surgeon Dr. Steve Greig falls for Gerry.
Carol and Hugh hit it off and end up marrying. Gerry, however, two-times Steve with a thief, Mickey Ryan, who robs and murders a tavern owner and is wounded in the process. Gerry pleads with Steve to operate on Mickey, who dies anyway.
After police suspicions point them toward Hugh as an accomplice, Steve confesses that he was the doctor in question. He doesn't inform on Gerry, but the cops trick her into an admission of guilt and take her away.
