Amy fears she’ll be an “old maid,” so she dates Howard, a client of the brokerage firm where she works. They fall in love and become engaged. Howard claims his mother needs an operation and convinces Amy to credit $5,000 to his account, promising to replace it promptly. He later asks Amy for an additional $15,000. Amy learns she’s pregnant. The police tell Amy that Howard has been pulling this scam on women in various cities, but resisted arrest and was mortally wounded. Before he dies, Howard apologizes. Amy is sentenced to three years’ probation for her crime.
