Jerry marries Ted, a newspaperman, and they settle down to three years of marital bliss. On their third wedding anniversary, when he is leaving for Chicago, she learns that Ted has been having an affair with another woman. Although she had agreed before their marriage to uphold a liberal attitude, Jerry becomes disillusioned, and turns to Don, her husband’s best friend, for comfort. When Ted refuses to accept her extramarital affairs, the couple obtain a divorce and go their separate ways. After numerous love affairs, Jerry meets Paul, who loved her long before her marriage to Ted. She vacations on his yacht, and decides to accompany him to Japan as his wife. However, his current wife, Helen, makes a plea for her husband. Realizing she does not love Paul, Jerry returns to Paris. There, on New Year’s Eve, she is reconciled with Ted.
