Barry Allen is traveling back to his howetown of Fallville for a visit. On the train ride he meets Daphne Dean, his ex-girlfriend. Daphne is now a movie star. Her agent wants Daphne to recreate the romance with Barry for publicity on her upcoming movie. Barry spends the day with Daphne and even dreams about her that night.

The following evening a masked ball is being held to launch the new movie. A scene from the movie is reenacted by Daphne in which she is captured. The actors playing the captors rush in and explain that theives have replaced them. Daphne was kidnapped for the jewels she was wearing.

Barry runs after the crooks as the Flash and rescues Daphne. The publicity from the robbery pleases Daphne’s agent, but Daphne has indeed fallen for Barry again. Barry, however, is devoted to Iris West.
