The love, or at least the lust, has gone out of the marriage between college professor Heather and Kyle since he gave up his career as a respected art critic to try his hand at performance art. In her eyes, he's lost his ambition, and she just doesn't respect him anymore. When she leaves, hoping to force him to think things over, he calls a hooker, beguiling Stacey who uses all the feminine wiles and lingerie she can muster to make him her slave. Meanwhile, poor young, blonde, busty, and beautiful Irene arrives to look over Kyle's house, which he has put up for sale to underwrite his art career. She comes back for an affair because her plumbing-obsessed husband Bill doesn't provide the romance and sensuality she needs as a woman. Kyle falls in love with Stacey, who doesn't love him, while Irene falls in love with Kyle, who doesn't love her.
