Ava meets Rusty, a new clarinet player at a local jazz club. He was happy with his life and on guard about dames always trying to change a feller's life. But she breaks through to him and he takes her in his arms. Later, he is offered a contract by an agent. Initially, he turns it down, but she encourages him to take it. As he leaves on the train, he warns her that it was her idea. Gradually, her letters start going unanswered and when he appears at a nearby town, she goes to see him. She discovers he had changed and realizes it was her fault.
