The wife of a poor shepherd named Sue Wells (Cleo Ridgely) is tired of being poor and takes advantage of a loophole to become owners of her neighbor's rich estate while her neighbor is gone. However, living in the mansion doesn't make Sue happy. When their neighbor comes home to find out what they have done he kills her husband. Right before he can kill her, she wakes up and realizes it was all a dream. Her husband then walks in and tells her that he got a job as that estate's overseer, so they won't have to worry about money anymore.[4]
