A dangerous riverboat gambler, Duke LeBlanc, has paid cash for a plantation and, before he can foreclose on another plantation, he falls in love with the owner's daughter, Annette. He "courts" her and realizes he has fallen deeply in love with her. A foil to Annette is Miss Zerle Wingo, an elementary school teacher. She has been devastated by her marriage to a ne'er do well. A plantation owner and amateur painter, Gig Porter, falls completely under the spell of this ice queen.
