Ellis (Duncan Fraser), a literature professor, has started a relationship with Fee (Elizabeth Dancoes), one of his students, displaying a serious lack of judgement. However, his judgement is not in question when he goes to meet his girl's parents. Why she invited him to see her parents (Roberta Maxwell and Christopher Plummer) scream and yell at one another, displaying for all to see the bonds of hatred they share, remains a mystery. The new couple, baptised by this conflagration, now proceed to spend the rest of their weekend with Daniel Kingsgate (Alan Scarfe), a famous writer. This time, not only is there shouting and screaming, but the writer tries to put the make on Ellis' new girlfriend while he is busy trying to console the writer's wife (Barbara March).
