Love calls for Everygirl to take her to work with him at the office of Work and Pleasure, a strange partnership. Trouble looks upon the attentions of Pleasure for Everygirl, and gloats over Love's discomfort at a situation over which he has no control. Work takes Pleasure to task for his lack of business interest and his attentions to Everygirl, only to be laughed at by Pleasure and told in a polite way to mind his own business. That night Everygirl prepares to go out with Pleasure after having told Love that she will not stand for his dictations. To her mother's surprise, Everygirl goes with Pleasure to a café, where Vice and Temptation have Vanity, Conceit, and Frivolity awaiting for the new prey. Vanity assures her she is too plain. Conceit instills her powers into Everygirl's mind. At first Everygirl refuses wine, but after all the others laugh at her shyness, Everygirl forgets her promise to Truth and tastes of the wine. Vice spots her as a new diversion, and after Vanity and Conceit has arranged her hair. Vice entices Everygirl to a private nook. At first Everygirl likes him, but when she awakens to the fact that his intentions are not good she shuns him and returns to Pleasure, begging him to take her home. She leaves the café. Early the next morning, Vanity and Conceit call on Everygirl with more fashionable gowns supplied by Pleasure. Truth has trouble awakening Everygirl from her slumbers, though she brightens at the sight of the finery. At the office Everygirl has trouble refraining from yawning. This troubles Work, but pleases old Trouble, who seeks the downfall of Everygirl. Love looks on brokenhearted at his sweetheart leaving him. When Everygirl is called by Pleasure, she brightens at his recalling the night before, but shudders at the thought of Vice's suggestions. On her return to her desk Work warns her of the danger of her associations with Pleasure, Vice and Temptation. He tells her such gowns as Vanity and Conceit would have her wear are not for Everygirl and begs her to go home to rest and think it over. On her way she meets Vice and Temptation, but, remembering Work's advice, she refuses their offers, and those of Conceit and Vanity. At home with Truth, Everygirl waits for Love, who comes and takes her once more to Work, who welcomes the old Everygirl. After marriage Everygirl has Happiness, which more than takes the place of Pleasure, Vice, Temptation, Vanity, and Conceit. Trouble comes no more to Everygirl, who lives on with Love, Truth, and Happiness. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
