Joan Wood; Hank Wood [Bob]; Teddy Wood; Paul Shelton; Hank Wood Jr.; Mrs. Hank Wood
After their young son Teddy dies of pneumonia, Joan and Hank’s marriage dissolves. They divorce and Joan demands excessive alimony in revenge. She spends the money wildly and refuses to take less.

Paul realises she’s changed her vindictive attitude; he proposes to Joan, and she accepts.
