Flattered by his attentions, the alluring Antoinette orchestrates a calculating game of seduction, but she repeatedly refuses Montriveau. Despite his sincere romantic declarations, Montriveaus passion remains unfulfilled. When the humiliated Montriveau eventually seeks his revenge, Antoinettes love awakens. But it may well be too late for the star-crossed lovers.
