She is taken to a French doctor's clinic for rehabilitation, where she falls in love with the doctor and his friend, the prince. When a plague hits the town, Saadia believes she is responsible and sets out to retrieve a plague serum held for ransom by bandits, while the love triangle between her, the doctor, and the prince unfolds.
