- Violet is a motherless little girl left alone with servants all day, for her father is a judge in the big city. Fairies are her mental companions. When she discovers Jim, an escaped convict, in her attic playroom, she believes that wicked dwarfs changed him from a prince into a striped zebra. All day Violet and her fairy prince entertain each other as she furnishes him with food and clothes from her father's wardrobe. Accompanied by an attorney who wishes to discuss a case, the Judge returns to his home in the evening. Violet goes to bed, only to be aroused by the loud voice of the attorney, who, determined to win the Judge to his way of thinking, has resorted to a threat and then to violence. Just at this moment the convict sees the Judge who sentenced him to prison being overpowered by the very attorney who falsely accused him. Little Violet enters and the attorney seizes her, places a pistol to her head, and threatens to fire if her father does not agree to his demands. The convict hesitates but a second; it is liberty or the life of his little friend. He tosses the child to safety, collars the attorney, and tells him that his day of reckoning has arrived. The attorney sneaks away while the Judge and Violet and the unjustly-sentenced convict have a heart-to-heart talk.—Moving Picture World synopsis
