Although she loved him with an undying, intrinsic love, Emma Gray, a bookkeeper, would not evince her feeling toward Joseph Ridpath, her employer, a clean, prepossessing young man, who was paying assiduous attention to her despite her comparative frigidity and indifference. She accepts his tokens of regard and respect, as if they were given to her by a lukewarm acquaintance. She maintains this attitude toward him because she fears she will be thought a fortune hunter. Mr. Ridpath has been expecting a large remittance from Joseph Thompson, a businessman, who is usually dilatory in his payments. Emma looks over each mail carefully, but a letter from the debtor is not forthcoming. Mr. Ridpath decides to see Mr. Thompson and collect the money in person if he can. Before he goes, he calls Emma's attention to the new fire alarm which has been installed in the office. While he is gone, Jim Furston, the foreman, asks Emma out to dinner, and when she refuses him, he forgets himself with the result that she rebukes him and strikes him in the face. He swears revenge. Mr. Thompson subsequently calls at the Ridpath office and pays the money to Emma, who gives him a receipt. She hurries to bank but is too late, and returning to the office, puts it into the safe. She turns away to get something and Furston slips in and hides behind the safe. The door is open and he sees his chance. Emma, in trying to reach some flies on a high shelf in the next room, pulls several down upon her head and she is rendered unconscious. Furston goes out, leaving the safe door open, intending to return later with a disguise and a satchel. The night watchman, in making his rounds, finds the safe open and calls Mr. Ridpath's house on the telephone. As the watchman is about to leave Furston enters and there is a hand to hand struggle. Furston overcomes the watchman and as he is about to make his getaway, Emma enters from the next room with a revolver she has taken from her employer's desk. Furston seizes her hand and the shot goes wild, breaking the glass in the fire alarm. The two are struggling when Ridpath rushes in, and after a fierce hand to hand struggle, Furston is overpowered. In the meantime the fire department has been aroused by the alarm in the office and the firemen pour into the office looking for the fire Emma is forced to show her hand and the barrier of indifference which has been separating them is broken.
