Show business agent Janice Brandt (Anne Baxter) all but abandons her client list to advance the career of young actor Larry Duke (George Segal), with whom she has fallen in love. Janice's alcoholic husband, Ed (Harry Townes), objects to this situation, expressing his displeasure by striking out at his wife -- who manages to knock Ed unconscious. In a panic, Janice tells Larry what she has done...whereupon Larry calmly suggests that she finish the job and murder Ed, and thus finally be rid of him.
