Synopsis
While Janet Carroll decides to give up her job when she marries, her friend, Marcia Wainwright has continued to pursue her career after marrying Jack Wainwright. Some time later, at around the same time that Janet's husband receives a promotion, Jack is reduced to taking a job as a railway freightman after he loses his former position. Marcia and Jack become increasingly estranged, especially after Marcia rejects the advances of Rodney Stone, the son of her employer, who then writes anonymous letters to Jack and Janet claiming that their respective spouses have been having an affair. When Jack learns the truth, he thrashes Rodney and reconciles with Marcia, who decides to quit her job and remain a housewife.
