While waiting to be seated at a restaurant, the friends enter a museum nearby showcasing the history of immigrants in New York. As the guide gives them the tour, they relive the story of an Irish immigrant, Karolyn O'Sullivan, who had moved to New York with her children and is struggling to provide for the family.
During the winter, a brawny sailor named John Patrick McGee looks for a room with Karolyn's family and immediately senses that her landlord, the uptight Billam Van Billiams is a closeted homosexual, although Billam is married to Fanny Van Billiams. With no more money to pay for rent, Karolyn makes a deal with John Patrick for him to seduce the landlord and avoid being evicted.
After the tour, the guide tells them that Karolyn eventually served four years in debtors' prison, John Patrick died at sea, Billam was convicted of sodomy and died penniless and alone; and Fanny was the first woman to vote in New York, and the first woman killed for voting in New York.
