Albert Woodruff is rejected by pretty Ruth Allen in favor of his friend, Justin Victor. Albert gets his revenge by faking his own death--by finding a man who looks just like him and killing him--then making it look like Justin murdered him. Justin is arrested, tried and convicted for Woodruff`s "murder". Years later, however, after he`s released from prison, he comes across Woodruff, who is very much alive. Complications ensue.
