Their sexual affair flourishes when he receives a day-release once a week for university courses. In between his classes, Rachel and Philip explore their passion. When another prisoner, Towler, espies the two lovebirds, he threatens to have Rachel raped by one of his henchmen if she doesn't bring him a package of drugs. However, by the time Rachel and Philip realize that it's not drugs she's bringing into the joint, but a gun for Towler, it may be too late... especially since Towler's thugs are already trailing Rachel.

Ormond and Roth, turning in nicely understated performances, generate the requisite heat, but the film never does.
