Censorship.
The original script for the film involved a playboy medical student named Stephan performing an unspecified operation on his girlfriend before he had his medical degree. The girl dies from the botched operation and his foster brother decides to protect him by taking the blame for the operation. The Hays Office objected to this script because they believed that audiences would assume that the operation was an abortion. In response Warner Bros changed the script to provide a specific cause for the operation. In the revised script the two lovers argue and Stephan pushes his girlfriend down the stairs.
Box office.
According to Warner Bros records the film earned $460,000 domestically and $181,000 foreign.
