Synopsis

Timothy Bartlett, a middle-aged assistant bank manager on his way to a bankers' convention in the resort town of Southport, picks up teenaged hitchhikers Nikki and Meg. Bored by the convention, Timothy leaves and looks for the girls. He finds Nikki in a discotheque and spends the night with her in his hotel room. Timothy begins dressing in youthful, hippie-like clothing and appears at the convention in a flowered shirt. After giving a speech, he returns to Nikki, and they spend the day racing through the sand dunes and sunbathing in the nude. Timothy rents an apartment for Nikki, but he comes in one night to find an orgy in progress and Nikki in bed with a young man. Disillusioned, Timothy calls his wife, Margaret, and asks her to fly to Southport. When she arrives, he tries to introduce her to his new lifestyle, dressing her in youthful attire and teaching her to dance. Finally, both Margaret and Timothy realize the foolishness of their behavior and return home.
