Single mother Inger has decided to return to her father's home from her life in Stockholm and sort out her life. To pass the time, she hangs out at the local dance hall. There, she dangles one man on a leash while she courts the drummer in the band. She thinks that theirs is a romance beyond all others. He thinks of it merely as a pleasant affair. Eventually, she figures that out and moves back to Stockholm, and regrets stringing the second, nicer, man along.
