- An effort is being made to rid the city of loan sharks. Molly and Holcomb are given this assignment. Stanley, a prominent banker, offers them his aid. Shortly afterward, Bob Lewis, one of Stanley's employees, is arrested on the charge of having robbed the bank. The boy tells his story to Molly. Unable to secure money with which to pay his mother's doctor bills, Bob had borrowed money from Fox, a loan shark located above the bank. Later, unable to continue paying the exorbitant interest demanded, the boy was warned that unless he produced the money shortly, his employer would be informed. Terrified, Bob stole. Although Stanley insists that Bob be punished, Molly succeeds in delaying action. She also succeeds in securing a position as typist in Fox's office. Entering the office a few days later, she finds a scarf pin lying on the floor. Molly recognizes it as Stanley's property. Then comes the discovery that Stanley is really the head of the institution. Peering through a hole in a secret panel between his office and the loan office, Stanley sees Molly going through Fox's papers. He and his figurehead capture the girl. Holcomb, who has been waiting for a signal from Molly, hears the struggle. Upon entering the office he finds Fox alone. A scream from behind the wall arouses his suspicion. Covering Fox with his pistol, Holcomb traces the cries and discovers the secret panel. Stanley and Fox are eventually placed under arrest. By promising to close their illegal business and to withdraw the charge against Bob, the bank president and his accomplice secure their freedom.—Moving Picture World synopsis
