Jane Wolfe as the adventuress bears off the honors in this strong drama. It is a story of the attempt of an unscrupulous manufacturer to get possession of an invention of a young man. Unwilling to pay a fair price for the model, he employs the adventuress, who is in love with him, to get the coveted article, promising to marry her in case she succeeds. The story is weak in one respect, and that is where the adventuress goes to the young inventor and draws a revolver with the intention of taking the model by force. Even had she been successful in getting the invention out of the house and into the possession of the manufacturer, there was no chance of her "getting away with it." Also, where the sweetheart of the inventor overhears the two plotters she is so palpably and plainly in view of the two that the scene loses all effect. With these two exceptions the story is excellently put on and holds all the way. Carlyle Blackwell, William H. West, Lillian Christy and Mrs. Dunlop all do good work. - The Moving Picture World, November 2, 1912
