Synopsis: After working out her sexual frustration with a little semi-nude housework — a classic Wishman moment of pointless / obsessive detail — horny Chicago housewife Meg (doe-eyed and doughy GIGI DARLENE from Hot Nights on the Campus and White Slaves of Chinatown) is suddenly accosted by her apartment building’s missing-link janitor (who sports buck teeth and a come-and-go Slavic accent). When he threatens to tell her husband, Meg bashes in what little brains he has with a bowl. (We see his p.o.v. of inside the bowl after its killed him!) Not one to think things through, Meg hops on a bus for New York City.

Once there, her semi-lobotomized demeanor practically screams “Please Molest Me!” to every lunatic she encounters, including a hardcore teetotaler (Wishman regular SAM STEWART, also in My Brother’s Wife) who becomes a belt-swinging maniac after a single drop of booze; a predatory lesbian (DARLENE BENNETT from Another Day, Another Man); and a yappy landlady’s simian husband, who pounces on Meg seconds after she enters his house.
