Ince, Inc. SYNOPSIS Marie Forgeat, in love with Claude Lescuyer, a promising young lawyer, learns from his father that he is to marry a "girl of hi,s own class," and that he must leave her at once. She tries desperately to explain that he cannot leave her now that she and one other will have need of him but her plea falls on deaf ears and she turns to her old friend. Dr. Berlier, as her lover allows his father to take him away. Eighteen years pass, and Marie, in order that her child may have a name, has married Flambon, owner of a cafe in Paris. Flambon*s apartment is over the cafe and he has made a sort of household drudge of Marie. He also insists that Claudine, "the baby who was not wanted, " shall become one of the entertainers in the cafe. He is especially desirous of this as he owes Michaud, the former owner of the cafe, a large amount of money and hopes to cancel the debt by marrying Claudine to his creditor. Marie begs that the girl may not be forced to enter the cafe, but Flambon insists. It is at the cafe that Claudine meets Gaston Marceau, a young writer of promise, and they become friends. Claudine confides in Gaston that Flambon wishes her to marry Michaud and Gaston begs her to run away with him. Claudine demurs at first but promises to meet him that evening. While Gaston waits for Claudine, Flambon and Michaud come to the apartment and insist that Claduine dine with them there to celebrate her engagement to Michaud. Marie, overhearing, starts to remonstrate, and Flambon, angered, turns fiercely on her. In the ensuing struggle Flambon drops his revolver. He sends Marie to her room and begs Michaud to remain, but the latter is highly incensed because Claudine has refused his atteatioas, and leaves. 13
