New Yorker Dyan Cannon reexamines her life when her husband's routine operation has complications that send him into intensive care. She finds out he has been having numerous affairs which causes her to have a near breakdown. She has impromptu sexual encounters with a friend and her doctor, neither of which are very appealing. Meanwhile her husband continues to get worse and is near death. The shock of an early scene featuring a naked, elderly Burgess Meredith dancing at a rooftop party eventually wears off, only to have to witness Cannon undressing and seducing an obese James Coco wearing a corset near the end. What happens in between those two scenes is only slightly more tolerable.
