Plot
A young woman, June Drake (Stevens) has been given two months to live. She has refused to marry her boyfriend Paul (Keene) but wants to spend one more night out on the town. Paul refuses because her doctors have told her that such excitement would kill her. June tells her best friend Rene (Coates) that she will go out alone, since Paul won't take her. Paul finally relents, but when he arrives, she dies in his arms.
