- While Tod and Buz are working on a tugboat in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Tod and a mysterious young woman water-skiing on the river fall in love at first sight and upon their brief whirlwind first meeting, where Tod does not even find out her name before she is whisked away by her accompanying entourage. He will learn by the media coverage that she is chanteuse Perette Dijon, originally from Marseilles, France, she who is on a singing tour of the United States. Her career and her personal life is controlled entirely by impresario John Ryan, who, along with his right hand man Higgy, will do whatever required to keep Tod out of Perette's life. Perette does not seem to like the control, but does not have the power or will to leave him. In his pursuit and thus protection of Perette from John, Tod may unwittingly uncover and exorcise the demons that pervade John and Perette's relationship.—Huggo
- Lee Marvin plays a jealous boyfriend.
