Based on the novel The Happy Alienist by Wallace Smith, which was suggested by a story related to Smith by Erich von Stroheim.
Professor Johann Volk, a Viennese psychiatrist, loves Marie, the impoverished Baroness von Schlewitz. She, in turn, loves Baron Kuno Adelhorst. Johann marries Marie, and she learns to love him. But an evil-minded assistant turns him against his wife by making him believe that she's being unfaithful to him. After drinking heavily, Johann shoots what he thinks is his wife but is in reality a dummy. Johann and Marie declare their love for each other.
