An actress returning from the theater finds that during her absence a burglar has gained entrance to her room and is hiding under her bed. Before retiring for the night, she throws herself upon the bed and lights a cigarette. The match sets fire to the carpet, and seeing the smoke she leans over the bed to find out whence it comes. From beneath the bed she sees a hand stealthily putting the fire out. Terrified, she manages to get out of the room and lock the burglar in. The police come, but cannot find the intruder. After they have gone, the actress bearing cries for help looks out of the window, sees the burglar hanging on a leader and drags him in from his perilous position with one of the window curtains. In return for his rescue the burglar leaves the jewels he has stolen and departs.
