| and arrives at her employer's office, where he hides. He overhears him, a financier, Robert Marlborough, declare his love. Madge acknowledges her liking | |
| for her employer, but says she cannot marry him. She gives no reason. When Robert leaves her, she is confronted by her husband. A fiery scene is followed | |
| by Robert attempting to rob the safe. She attempts to stop him and is knocked out. He escapes persued by the night porter. In attempting to escape, | |
| he dives into the Thames and is supposed to have been drowned. Madge marries Robert and they are ideally happy until Pearson turns up. He has not drowned, | |
| and has escaped the police by climbing onto a boat on which he proceeded to South America. His game is now more than ever blackmail. Robert returns to hear | |
| his threats, pretends to know nothing, treats him as a cousin, and decoys him out of the house. In a lonely wood he confronts the scoundrel. | |
| He has two confessions of suicide and two revolvers, one loaded. They will each take a gun and fire at their own head. Pearson has to be forced to do it, | |
| but ultimately chooses the loaded weapon, and the obstacle to Madge's happiness is removed. | |
