Synopsis: A man visits a carnival and is fascinated by one of the sideshows: an exceptionally beautiful woman who is constantly asleep and who visitors can pay a quarter to kiss. He buys her and finds a doctor to cure her sleeping sickness. On being awakened, she states that she prefers show business to being this prince's princess. But he is not willing to let her go.
