In 1968, Dennis Pitt (Anthony Perkins) comes out of an institution for burning things down and takes a plain job at a pickle factory. He tells Sue Ann Stepanek (Tuesday Weld), a high school cheerleader, that he is a secret agent on a mission. Noel Black plays it quiet, and she believes him at once, which pulls the two of them close.
