Peter Ibbetson and Mary, childhood friends, recognize one another again as adults and share a gift for “dreaming true,” meeting in dreams across place and time. Peter accidentally kills the Colonel after learning he is his father, and is sentenced to prison; Mary secures a commutation, allowing them to meet in dreams until her death and Peter’s.
King Eadgar sends his henchman Aethelwold to assess Aelfrida, but Aethelwold falls in love with her, lies to the king, and marries her himself. When Eadgar visits, Aelfrida reveals her beauty rather than disguising it; Aethelwold dies by suicide, and the king orders his burial with honor.
