In April, 1915, Captain Franck of German Intelligence crashes his plane in Warsaw and is rescued by fellow Germans. During his recovery in the hospital, he falls in love with his nurse, Maria, and marries her when he is released, unaware that she is a Russian spy. Franck is assigned to get the notorious Russian spy Sulkin and his confederate, who is known only as B-24. He sets to work with the help of Schultz and Captain Weber, who raid a flower shop that Maria has been using to send messages. The owner, Pahlke, admits to them that B-24 is female. When the errand boy brings Weber and Schultz a handkerchief belonging to Maria that he found in the shop, they realize she is implicated, but decide not to tell Franck until they are sure.
