In a Dublin bachelor flat, an "almost" totally respectable young man is led astray or leads a girl astray.
The play centers around his sense of guilt which is partly religious and partly a social statement of his own hypocrisy after the act.
But worse awaits him-- they are not only found out, but the girl makes off with his wallet and umbrella.
