Mrs. Herne neglects her home and children for social obligations, but when she decides to divorce her husband, she wants the children as a part of the settlement.

As usual, Mrs. Herne spends the week socializing, leaving the poor children alone with the maid, grieving for their father. On the seventh day, however, the maid has an accident and cannot work, forcing Mrs. Herne to care for her children alone.
