[edit] Plot summary
Marcia, (Crawford), a young socialite is a firm believer that a couple should be faithful to one another, unlike her peers who do not feel so strongly. Marcia meets Jim, (Tone), who agrees with her on the subject of a couple's monogamy and pursues her. Marcia, however, decides to pursue Sherry, (Montgomery), whom Marcia sees as a challenge and proceeds to cure him of his philandering nature. Marcia and Sherry are married, yet Sherry continues as before. Marcia decides to teach her husband a lesson, by having a party, where she invites Sherry's former flames along with their mates. Marcia announces that she intends to be unfaithful to her husband, by having a fling with Jim, who still cares for Marcia. In the end, Marcia stays true to her beliefs and cannot go through as she planned. Sherry then sees how much his wife loves him and is convinced to reform his former ways.
