Released from prison after serving two years on a check-forging charge, Mildred Lynch changes her name to Diane Stuart and moves to Los Angeles. Parole officer Joan Willburn finds Diane a job at a hospital. However, Diane steals Joan's boyfriend Larry Collins and hides the relationship from Joan and her past from Larry. When Joan learns of the affair, she warns Diane that to marry, she must first seek approval from the parole board, which will be obligated to inform Larry.
Despite all of the help that she has received from Joan, Diane accuses Joan of trying to sabotage her romance and her parole after Diane is arrested for a drug theft at the hospital that she did not commit. Larry informs Diane that Joan has caused the charges to be dismissed.
