Ruth Adams; Edwin Foster; Mrs. Adams; Mrs. Foster; Mr. Adams; Dr. Hoskins; Kitty; Tom; Dr. Paige
Ruth, raised by her mother after her father’s death, demonstrates an “ungovernable temper.” Ruth’s mother introduces her to Edwin, the son of an old friend, and the two young people fall in love despite resenting their mothers' matchmaking. One day Ruth’s father returns: he has been in a mental hospital for years. Fearing she’s inherited his mental illness, Ruth breaks up with Edwin, has a nervous breakdown and is sent to a hospital. Dr. Paige says she’s a “disturbed case” but not “genuinely insane.” After therapy, Ruth is released and will now marry Edwin.

Donna and Greg fall in love but he’s afraid Dan’s photos of her mundane past as a "hash-slinger" will ruin her career. Donna gets the photos back from Dan and he feels betrayed.
