The Love Nest (1922)

Gordon Townley comes from the city to a fishing village in Maine on secret business, and Nan Corwin finds him sufficiently attractive to rebuff her long-time sweetheart, Ned Weatherby. Ned goes to the city to make something of himself, fails, and returns to find Nan disillusioned with Townley. The latter is able to leave gracefully when he rescues Ned from a fight and learns that his wife has withdrawn her alimony suit.
