After years of participating in both the London high society and in a disgraced lower class, A.J Raffles has grown tired of the social scene in London. Though he lives by his own moral code, Raffles does not feel he has ever slighted anyone innocent. However, he cannot say the same for some of his peers. When Raffles catches his cricket protégé attempting to steal from his checkbook, Raffles knows something must be wrong. Usually honest and kind, Teddy admits that he has gotten himself into financial trouble. After taking a loan from a lender named Dan Levy, Teddy was charged an unjust amount of interest. With the threat of a serious consequence should he not pay the interest in a timely manner, Teddy felt forced to try to steal. Sympathetic to the young man’s plight, Raffles and Bunny decide to help Teddy, and teach Levy a lesson.
