A group of travelling performers is on the road to their next booking. Ella, the wife of the head of the troupe, is disturbed because her husband of eighteen months seems to be paying undue attention to another troupe member and she begins a flirtation of her own. It takes an accident while crossing a river to show her where her heart really lies.
