Jimmy Wallace returns from New York and stirs theater gossip with a column on a new revue and designer Doris Dane. Violet Williamson pressures him about Rose Aldrich as John Williamson teases and clashes reveal lingering past tensions.
In a tale of Broadway intrigue, Rose Dane's rise as a costume designer and financier is revealed. Jimmy shares how Rose built a company, financed the venture, and outsmarted powerful backers, while Violet speculates on an old romance and Rodney Aldrich confronts Randolph about Rose’s hard-won resilience and future.
