Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this drama, a Madison Avenue advertising executive has a mid-life crisis and leaves his wife and daughter to embark upon a series of love affairs. Among his conquests are a professional dancer, a television executive, and a married ex-girl friend. None of them are particularly satisfying, but this is small consolation to his wife who is devastated by the affairs and decides to get a divorce. The husband, looking for comfort, returns to the arms of the dancer who ends up having a mental breakdown. He then turns to his ex-girl friend, but she is too busy with her home life to bother with him. The husband suddenly feels tremendously relieved and decides that he doesn't need women as much as he thought he did.
