High-school senior Janet takes a job as a babysitter. She finds herself attracted to the child's father Greg, and is outraged that Greg's wife Sally goes out every night, dressed in slinky gowns. Janet and Greg fall in love, over the objections of her mother and her boyfriend Arnie. Janet discovers that Greg is a lazy loser who forces Sally to support their family as a nightclub cigarette girl, which explains her nightly absences. Greg begs Sally not to leave him, and Janet is humiliated. Janet has a nervous breakdown but will recover, with Arnie’s help.
