Emil (Zvonimir Rogoz), a fastidious and orderly older man, carries his happy new bride, Eva (Hedy Lamarr), over the threshold of their home. (He has great difficulty opening the lock on the front door, trying key after key.) She is greatly disappointed on their wedding night because he does not even come to bed. He has pinched his finger in the clasp of Eva's pearls when he attempts to remove them. He is unable to consummate their marriage due to the minor injury on his finger. Emil continues to ignore Eva for many days often retreating behind his newspaper. Eva refuses to live in a loveless marriage. She can no longer bear to be Emil's wife in name only and returns to the estate of her father (Leopold Kramer), a wealthy horse breeder. Eva seeks and is granted a divorce from Emil.
