Beautiful Fanny Trellis (Davis) has many admirers, but she also has an extravagant, dishonest brother, Trippy (Richard Waring), who embezzles funds from his boss, Job Skeffington (Rains).

Happy Marriage Charade: Initally, anyway. Job only realises later in the marriage that Fanny doesn't love him. | |

Nice Guy | |
| Mr. Skeffington / int_c5249b29 | comment |
Nice Guy: It takes Job a long time to stop being this, and even then he remains endlessly polite to adulterous, uncaring wife. George, Fanny's cousin, is something of an example, he clearly sees Fanny's treatment of Job cruel and spiteful, and is the one who pursues her to reconcile with him at the end. | |
