Timothy Webb's wealthy father objects to his son's light-hearted lifestyle and expels him from his will. He has to work as a plumber in the factory that his father has bequeathed to his uncle. Timothy discovers that red cooper Nicholas Schonn, with the help of the feminist Elsa Smolski, is rioting among the working people. He pretends to be a Bolshevik and can thus destroy their plan to rip off the rich Sylvia Kingston for $ 50,000. Timothy and Sylvia fall in love and she gives him the money to buy his father's factory.
