Bob Gilmore, a young clubman, is called by telephone to his home, where his parents are giving him a birthday party.

Later in the evening he assumes guilt for a check which had been in reality forged by his foster father, in order to save the mother's feelings, but obtains a written confession from the guilty man for future use if necessary.
