Ruth and Alice DeVere and their father Hosmer struggle to pay the bills in New York City - times are hard, even for a proficient actor like Mr. DeVere. As he efficiently auditions for a new play, a vintage voice affliction renders him terribly hoarse and he loses the role. Despite voice rest and treatment, Mr. DeVere's voice fails to improve, and it is impossible to find theater work.
A friend and neighbour in their apartment building shows that Mr. DeVere will try acting in the moving pictures (which being silent, would not need him to speak whatsoever) but Mr. DeVere considers that business to be common and cheap. However, when they acquire an eviction notice, and local shops refuse to stretch credit, Mr. DeVere may have no choice... and where he runs, his daughters will follow.
