Overview
The Mannings are a professional couple—she is a doctor, he is a lawyer—who are so absorbed in their careers that they have little time for their young daughter Louise, who is left to be raised by their servants. They are shaken out of their single-minded pursuit of their careers when Louise—feeling neglected, unloved and unhappy—runs away with a young newsboy.
