To make ends meet after her sister's marriage, Mary Ballard takes a lodger, Roger Poole, into the house where she lives with her troubled younger brother, their housekeeper, and her aunt as chaperon. Her friends and relatives disapprove -- they want her to marry a childhood friend and be taken care of, but Mary wants to work and make her own way in the world.
