Polly (Shirly Knight) runs metabolism tests because the money ran out for her doctor's education, and keeps a delightfully insane father. Priss (Elizabeth Hartman) worked for NRA, then married and went through mental agonies over breast-feeding. Kay (Joanna Pettet), whose marriage begins the action of the story and whose death ends it, marries a failure who eventually beats her and nearly drives her insane--but she can't let The Group know she's made an unsuccessful marriage.
