Young couple Sam (Arthur Hill) and Christine Bonner (Jane Fonda) are struggling in their marriage. Sam's devotion to his wife is intense, but Christine wants a little bit of breathing room. When he introduces her to his co-worker, Murray Logan (Peter Finch), who is unhappily married to Sybil (Angela Lansbury), there are immediate sparks between Christine and Murray, and, as their respective marriages disintegrate, the two begin to look for a way to be together.
