Jean supports her younger brothers by running a lunchroom. Her brother Timmy requires “special attention” due to his weak health. Timmy idolizes Tom, a former professional baseball player.

Timmy falls into a depression; Jean tries to find Tom, but he and Carrie have married and moved away. Jean swallows her pride and has her story printed in a newspaper. Tom and Carrie return: Tom is now a baseball coach and Timmy will get better.
