The story

In Vienna, Captain Karl von Raden (Conrad Nagel) purchases a returned ticket to a sold-out opera and finds himself sharing a loge with a lovely woman (Greta Garbo). Though she repulses his first advance, she does spend an idyllic day with him in the countryside, where romance blossoms. Before Karl can return to duty, his uncle, Colonel Eric von Raden (Edward Connelly), the chief of the secret police, assigns him an important mission to deliver secret plans to officials in Berlin, but he also warns his nephew that the woman he just met is Tania Fedorova, a top Russian spy.
