When Marie gives birth to Daisy May, Danny is led to believe at the hospital that the baby is not his. Shattered, he embarks upon a life of drinking and carousing. Nevertheless, he loves the little girl, and as she grows up, Daisy May joins him on the brewery wagon. On one of these trips, Danny drinks too much and loses control of his horses, and Daisy May is injured in the melee. Meanwhile, Bouvais has finally convinced Mamie to run away with him, but Danny's accident finally awakens in her the love she feels for him, and she refuses to go. Rejected, Bouvais marries another woman and happiness is restored to Danny and Mamie. When they reconcile, Daisy May recovers and Danny embarks upon the new career of driving a milk wagon.
