Rachel (Olive Glass) is a housewife who is going back to college to study and become a professor, while earning some money of her own tutoring. Her husband George (Ryan Driller) is somewhat stifling to her ambition, sending her off on an errand to get his car fixed, even though she's busy trying to write. They're planning a weekend getaway but the busted car is one roadblock. At the repair shop she's befriended by the British repairman Mike (Clarke Kent) and he drives her home, where they have a pleasant chat when she invites him in for coffee, actually tea per his preference. George phones to tell her he has to work and their trip is canceled, but Rachel is attracted to the muscular repair guy, and as he leaves, they're both amused observing the uninhibited sexual antics of a neighbor, Lisa (Rachael Cavalli), who apparently doesn't believe in having curtains or window shades.
