Helen has a scar on her face, which was the result of a childhood accident. She can’t afford plastic surgery, but family friend Jed, a former circus clown, shows her how to use makeup to hide the scar. Moving to another town where no one knows her, Helen dates deliveryman Johnny. However, he hates dishonest people and Helen is afraid to tell him the truth about her face. She decides to leave town but is badly injured in a car accident; the insurance pays for plastic surgery on her face. Helen confesses to Johnny that she had a scar before, proving she’s an honest person. They will be married.
