Synopsis: [From Solax promotional materials] A never-do-well son of a poor inventor pursues and blackmails his sister, who has married a wealthy man. This woman is ashamed of her brother, so she pays him not to claim relationship. Not satisfied with the little he gets, he breaks into his sister’s own home and is about to burglarize the place when detectives, who have shadowed him for a former offense, interfere. The black sheep tries to make a get-a-way, but is shot dead in the attempt.
