Output (English): AndreLouis Moreau Ramon Novarro loves Aline de Kercadiou Alice Terry, the niece of his godfather, Quintin de Kercadiou Lloyd Ingraham, and she him. However Quintin would prefer she married the Marquis de la Tour dAzyr Lewis Stone, a middleaged nobleman, rather than someone who does not even know who his parents are. One day, expert swordsman de la Tour first toys with, then kills Andres friend Philippe de Vilmorin in a duel. Andre turns to the Kings Lieutenant for justice. However, when the official learns who the accused is, he immediately orders Andres arrest. Andre flees. Meanwhile, France nears the brink of revolution. When one orator in favor of liberty and equality is shot down by a soldier, Andre fearlessly takes his place and remains undaunted when he is grazed by a bullet. When the dragoons are called out to disperse the mob, an admirer named Chapelier helps Andre escape. He joins a wandering theatre troupe led by Challefau Binet James A. Marcus. Andre writes better plays for them to perform, and they become very successful, eventually performing at a theatre in Paris. Andre becomes engaged to Binets daughter, Climene Edith Allen. Aline and de la Tour attend a performance of his latest work, however, and she and Andre spot each other. She goes to see him, but he does not wish to renew their relationship. De la Tour, despite loving Aline, cannot help trifling with Climene. By chance, Aline and Countess de Plougastel Julia Swayne Gordon, with whom she is staying, see him in a carriage with Climene. Aline informs de la Tour she never wants to see him again. De la Tour blackmails the countess into helping him, reminding her of an incident in her past. Meanwhile, in the National Assembly, the aristocrats, unable to effectively respond to the reformminded delegates with words, resort to duels to eliminate their leading opponents. Chief among the duelists is de la Tour. In desperation, Danton and Chapelier recruit Andre to reply in kind. The Chevalier de Chabrillone William Humphrey is his first victim. Eventually, he gets what he wants: a duel with de la Tour. He disarms his foe, then allows him to pick up his sword. After Andre wounds the nobleman in his sword arm, de la Tour gives up. When news reaches Paris that the Austrians and Prussians have invaded France in support of the beleaguered King Louis XVI, the French Revolution erupts. In the fighting, de la Tour is overwhelmed and left for dead. When he revives, he staggers to the residence of the countess. Andre heads there too, to rescue his love and his mother the countess whose identity has been revealed to him by de Kercadiou, armed with a passport signed by Danton authorizing him to do anything he wants. When the two bitter enemies spot each other, de la Tour demands the passport. Andre refuses, whereupon de la Tour draws a pistol. The countess throws herself in front of de la Tour, then reveals that he is in fact Andres father. The two men have an initially uneasy reconciliation. When de la Tour starts to leave, Andre offers him his sword. Thus armed, de la Tour faces the rioters in the street and perishes. Andre places the two women in a covered carriage. At the Paris gate, a man spots the aristocrats inside and demands they be handed over to the mob. Moreau pleads with them to let them go for his sake. The masses respond with extravagant sentimentality, and the trio are allowed to leave Paris.
