The story

Margaret (Patsy Ruth Miller) and Don (Lawrence Gray), two intelligent and idealistic young people, begin their life together under a daring new philosophy: "marriage by contract"—a modern, time-limited union allowing each partner to retain personal freedom, economic independence, and the right to dissolve the relationship at will. At first, the arrangement feels refreshing and enlightened. The evening after returning from their honeymoon, friends visit to celebrate the experimental couple.
