Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

In this black comedy, a twitchy hypochondriac ends up conned into giving up his $500,000 inheritance in exchange for $50,000 cash. He does this because he is sure that he will die before he can get the money. The fellow's nurse loves her healthy charge and inspires him to live again. Together they conspire to regain their money by having him threaten suicide. If he does so, he would nullify their contract.
