The Supreme Temptation:剧情介绍

Plot Summary:Herbert DuBois, a young medical student in Paris, falls in love with and marries, Annette, a grisette. They do not get along well, however, and he later secures a separation from her. He returns to America, to find his father greatly worried over impending financial ruin. The blow falls and DuBois, senior, kills himself, leaving Herbert to care for his mother and sister, Lydia. Some time later, he falls in love with Florence, the daughter of the family lawyer, and his friend, Milton, is fascinated by Lydia. M. Picard, a French milliner, pays Herbert a visit and informs him of Annette's death. He and Florence are then married. A year later, Herbert has been promoted to the head of the medical college and he learns that he is soon to become a father. Annette has come to America to live. While DuBois is preparing to perform an autopsy on a young woman who has died suddenly, he discovers, to his horror, that it is Annette, and that she is not dead, but in a cataleptic trance, a disease to which her family was subject. Then the supreme temptation comes to him to kill her with a slight movement of his scalpel and thus remove forever the dark past, but his better nature conquers, and after calling the attention of the others to the body, he goes out. Restoratives are quickly applied and Annette comes back to life. Then follows an agony of suspense for Herbert. Will she live and spoil his present happiness, or will she die? After what seems eternity, one of the doctors informs him that Annette has died, and rushing up to his wife's room, he is stopped by the nurse who tells him that a son has been born to them.
