According to a film magazine, "Laughing Moon loves Lieutenant Eldridge, who confesses to being the father of her child, and at the Colonel's command, he marries her. In time the Indian girl realizes that her American husband is ashamed of her — and when she overhears him say that when their son is older he also will be ashamed of his shapeless, parchment skinned squaw mother, her heart is broken. Not long after this, the Sioux chief quarrels with the Colonel, and one of the chiefs warriors is placed under arrest at the post.
