THE SHOCK.

Wilse Dilling (Lon Chaney) is a crippled gangster living like a brute in the savage streets of Chinatown. He receives a coded message to go to the home of his boss, Ann Cardington (Christine Mayo), known as Queen Anne, a powerful crime boss feared in the underworld. Dilling is to pose as a telegraph operator in his effort to watch the banker who had betrayed her. He finds a good friend in Hadley's daughter Gertrude (Virginia Valli), whom Dilling falls in love with.
